Passive band pass filter

What is a band pass filter? 

A bandpass filter is an electronic circuit that allows a specific range of frequencies to pass through while attenuating frequencies outside that range. It is commonly used in audio and radio frequency applications to selectively filter out unwanted frequencies and isolate the desired signal.

C1 = 1 / 2πfLR

C2 = 1 / 2πfHR

As shown in the figure 5 above, the signals with frequencies between fL and fH will be allowed to go through in an electronic circuit for further processing. Signals falling outside of this range would be attenuated or died out.

This passive band pass filter circuit is a common circuit in many electronic circuit boards to eliminate signal noise. The circuit consists of resistors and capacitors; thus, designers could refer to the web pages above to calculate required values of those components based on required cut off frequencies.

  2. Our brain has something called brain waves. Electronic devices such as laptop, computer servers, mobile phone, TV, cable box, etc. could emit electromagnetic waves as well as brain waves, if developers implemented.

    Our brain waves have different frequencies than WiFi, 5G signals, etc. I don't know its range or frequencies.

    If those electronic devices emit brain waves that match ours, then we would get unpleasant effects, which could be voices, heart attack, unintended movements, etc. They could even load video on our brains.

    One possible solution is to require electronic manufacturer to include _passive band pass filter_ to block brain wave emitted from their equipment while searching for the rest on earth.

  3. Any hackers or attackers could login an electronic device, install software, and then send out brain's attacking signals. This was the reason to block brain wave emission from a device.

  4. In short, we could be controlled as a robot if those signals were not interrupted. Our brain, memory, nerves, sense, and conscious were not free from attacks. We could be like a speaker too. There are many kinds of attacks that you couldn't believe unless you're a target.
