Abstract A four-pole superconducting tunable filter at VHF-band with constant absolute bandwidth is proposed. The resonator consists of a spiral-in-spiral-out (SISO) resonator with one end shorted to ground and the other end loaded with a varactor diode. Both combline and interdigital constructions for coupling are introduced, and tuned to meet the constant bandwidth requirement. The fabricated device has a compact size, a tuning range of 7.3% from 247.28 to 266.58, a 3-dB bandwidth of 2.32 ± 0.03 MHz. The insertion loss ranges from 0.5 to 1.6 dB, yielding a high unloaded Q of 1600–5500. The simulated and measured results show an excellent agreement.
