Design of a high gain filter system for Marker Locator

Abstract: This paper introduces a high-gain, low-noise band-pass filter system for detection/amplification of small signals. In addition, related theory and methodology are described for a specific design implementation. Simulation and experimental results are presented and discussed. The purpose of the implemented design was to construct a band-pass filter system with 102 dB gain and with an output noise level of less than 0.8V. The design of the high-gain band-pass filter system was achieved mainly with the help of Filter Pro, LTSpice IV, and Multisim 12. The thesis provides important support for the project Marker Locator and constitutes a valuable reference for future active filter system design and small signal detection/amplification.
