BW = 1/RC.

R is decreasing. So BW will increase.

For parallel arrangement of RLC, BW = 1/RC. R decreases, BW increases.

In parallel RLC circuit q=r""L/c.

So when r decreases q decreases.and b.w= resonant frequency/q factor.
So if q decreases then bandwidth must increase. Make high r-value get power loss to have high q in the circuit.

Bandwidth = fr/Q --- eqn1.

fr = resonance frequency, Q=Quality factor.
fr = 1/2*pi*sqrt(LC).
Q = 1/(R*sqrt(LC).

If R decreases, Q increases from eqn1 Q increases, bandwidth decreases.

Q = R*sqrt(C/L) for Parallel RLC.

I don't think this is right. According to wikipedia, the Q factor of a parallel RLC circuit is: R*sqrt(C/L). This implies that decreasing the resistance would decrease the Q factor. And since, Q factor and bandwidth are inversely proportional, the bandwidth would increase!

I am also having same perception with @Vasiq, also Q factor is the ratio of resistance to inductive reactance. If resistance increases then Q factor also increase & consequently Band width decreases as both inversely proportional to each other.

Q = x/R when R decrease Q increase. And bandwidth inversely proportional to Q factor. That means bandwidth increase.

BW=R/2pifL as resistance decrease band width decreases.

We know for parallel resonance circuit Q = wRC or = R/wL. So R increases Q increases.

B.W = f. r/Q than bandwidth decreases.
