Microelectromechanical tunable delay line circuit
Tunable delay circuit devices have an input port, an output port, at least three parallel paths connecting the input port and the output port, on each path, an input switch and an output switch, and on each path, a plurality of shunt resonant tanks connected between the input switch and the output switch, each shunt resonant tank periodically chargeable from the input port and dischargeable to the output port by operation of the input switch and the output switch.

Two-Dimensional Resonant Rod-Based Delay Line With High Bandwidth
An on-chip acoustic delay line (ADL) for operation in the radio frequency (RF) range uses a two-dimensional array of resonant rods and a piezoelectric layer having corrugated structure. The ADL has one or more programmable passband frequencies which are determined by the lithographically-defined artificial dispersive characteristics of acoustic metamaterials formed by forests of the locally resonant rods and selectable attached matching networks. The ADL devices offer exceptionally high fractional bandwidth and low insertion loss. The ADL can be used in self-interference cancellation networks to provide full duplex radio.
