TLDR
In this paper, a high frequency side of the amplitude characteristic in the pass band of the surface acoustic wave filter is enhanced in comparison with a low frequency side thereof, which is the case in our case.
Abstract
An RF converter includes a video modulator and a sound modulator. A modulated video signal from the video modulator and a modulated sound signal from the video modulator are mixed and conducted to a surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter constituted as a band pass filter, an RF television signal being the output of this surface acoustic wave filter. A high frequency side of the amplitude characteristic in the pass band of the surface acoustic wave filter is enhanced in comparison with a low frequency side thereof.
