A design method of narrow bandpass filters (NBPFs) of 4–6% bandwidth with ultrawideband suppression of harmonic passbands, utilizing two cascaded step impedance resonators (SIRs) in a suspended stripline, is proposed in this paper. The proposed design utilized the characteristics of a suspended stripline, which provides a much higher characteristic impedance ratio as compared with that of the microstripline, enabling ultrawideband harmonic suppression. As an example of the NBPF, a filter with a passband center frequency f0 of 0.75 GHz and bandwidth of 5% was implemented and proved to suppress the harmonic passbands up to 13.5 f0. Since the proposed filter was implemented on the suspended stripline, the passband insertion loss was only −0.9 dB, which is low as compared with other previous designs. The proposed filter is a compact high-performance low-loss NBPF, which can be applicable to various wireless systems.

A novel dua1-mode microstrip bandpass filter with two triangle corner cuts and a pair of equal crossed slots is proposed. The performance of the designed filter is studied in detail. The proposed filter structure uses a single patch without coupling gaps. The center frequency is about 2.11GHz. The 3dB relative bandwidth is 9.95%, and the minimum insertion loss in the passband is 0.12dB. Two transmission zeros can be implemented on both sides of the passband. The insertion loss is l0dB within 2.04-2.18GHz. The effect on the filter’s performance by changing filter parameters is studied. The results show that this new filter can provide a low loss and make miniaturization easy.

A corrugated disk resonator with eight grooves is proposed for wideband bandpass filter (BPF) design. Due to the spoof localized surface plasmons resonances of the corrugated metallic structure, the dipole, quadrupole, hexapole modes, and a fundamental mode excited by the introduced short-circuited via holes are employed to realize four transmission poles (TPs) in the passband. The theoretical analysis is described by the electric field and current distributions on the resonator. The resonant frequencies can be tuned easily by the parameters of the structure, which can be used to adjust the center frequency and bandwidth of the BPF freely. Furthermore, two resonators are cascaded to obtain eight TPs to improve the selectivity performance. Finally, three fabricated filters demonstrate the design method.


This paper presents design and analytical model for Sharp Skirt Dual-Mode Bandpass Filter for RF receivers. Proposed filter is designed using open stub loaded H shaped resonator. Based on analytical model insertion loss S21 and return loss S11 for proposed filter are demonstrated. Inductive Overlaying plate is proposed to control upper passband edge of proposed filter to improve frequency selectivity with fixed center frequency. The proposed filter has sharp frequency selective range from 5.1GHz to 9.2GHz. With overlay plate, frequency selective range is tuned to 5.1GHz-8.6GHz. Without overlaying plate the proposed filter has return loss greater than 10dB and insertion loss of 0.7dB. Lower and upper passband edges are at 5.1GHz and 9.2GHz with attenuation level of 52dB and 54dB respectively. With overlaying plate, the filter has same S 11 and S 21 parameters, but upper passband edge is shifted from 9.2GHz to 8.6GHz

A novel miniaturized wideband bandpass filter (BPF) using capacitor-loaded microstrip coupled line is proposed. The capacitors are loaded in parallel and series to the coupled line, which makes the filter just require one one-eighth wavelength coupled line and achieve filtering response with multiple transmission poles (TPs) and transmission zeros (TZs). Compared with the state-of-the-art microstrip wideband BPFs, the proposed filter has the advantages of compact size and simple structure. A prototype centered at 1.47 GHz with the 3-dB fractional bandwidth of 86.5% is demonstrated, which exhibits the compact size of 0.003λ2 g (λg is the guided wavelength at the center frequency) and the minimum insertion loss of 0.37 dB.

This paper presents a low loss fully embedded bandpass filter (BPF) using low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) for multilayer System-in-Package (SiP) and Multi-Chip-Module (MCM) applications, e.g. wireless applications for the unlicensed 60 GHz band. The measured insertion loss was 1.5 dB at the center frequency 58 GHz, and a return loss of less than −10 dB was achieved, including two grounded coplanar waveguide transmission line (CPWg) to stripline transitions. The four layers BPF has a 3 dB bandwidth of about 11 GHz which supplies e.g. broadband and high data rate applications. The whole BPF requires a substrate area of 5.6 × 2.1 × 0.42 mm3 with transitions and a shielding via fence. This BPF suits well for V-band applications in a LTCC package because of the compact dimensions and the good performance.

A clear and efficient design method for ultra-wideband microstrip-to-suspended stripline transition, which is based on the analytical expressions of the whole transitional structure, is presented. The conformal mapping is applied to obtain the characteristic impedance of the transitional structure within 2.85% accuracy as compared with the EM-simulation results. The transition is designed to provide broadband impedance matching and smooth field conversion. The implemented transition performs less than 0.6 dB insertion loss per transition for frequencies up to 30 GHz.

A novel configuration of a dual-band bandpass filter (BPF) working as a harmonic attenuator is introduced and fabricated. The proposed filter operates at 3 GHz, for UHF and SHF applications, and 6.3 GHz, for wireless applications. The presented layout has a symmetric structure, which consists of coupled resonators. The designing of the proposed resonator is performed by introducing a new LC equivalent model of coupled lines. To verify the LC model of the coupled lines, the lumped elements are calculated. The introduced filter has a wide stopband up to 85 GHz with 28th harmonic suppression, for the first channel, and 13th harmonic suppression, for the second channel. The harmonics are attenuated using a novel structure. Also, the proposed BPF has a compact size of 0.056 λg2. Having several transmission zeros (TZs) that improve the performance of the presented BPF is another feature. The proposed dual-band BPF is fabricated and measured to verify the design method, where the measurement results confirm the simulations.

This paper presents a design of a transmissive-type, low insertion loss (IL) negative group delay (NGD) circuit with a reconfigurable NGD. The proposed circuit consists of a series transmission lines (TLs) and shunt short-circuited coupled lines where an isolation port is terminated with a parasitic compensated PIN diode. Analytical design equations are derived to obtain the circuit parameters for the predefined NGD and IL. The low IL can be achieved because of the very high characteristic impedance of the short-circuited coupled lines. The TL terminated with a PIN diode is used to achieve the constant center frequency of reconfigurable NGD circuit. For experimental validation, the NGD circuit is designed and fabricated at a center frequency (<i>f</i><sub>0</sub>) of 2.14 GHz. In the measurement, the NGD varies from -0.5 ns to -2 ns with an IL variation of 2.08 to 3.60 dB at <i>f</i><sub>0</sub> = 2.14 GHz. The NGD bandwidth (bandwidth of GD less than 0 ns) varies from 90 MHz to 50 MHz. The minimum input/output return losses are higher than 10 dB for the overall tuning range.

In this letter, a compact dual-mode bandpass filter (BPF) with an ultra-wide stopband that employs two folded open-loop resonators (FOLRs) and stub-loaded resonators (SLRs) is proposed. The dual-mode resonators are optimized by loading two SLRs onto the folded open-loop resonators, and this process is analyzed using the dual-mode theory. To miniaturize the device size and increase chip performance, the proposed BPF is fabricated by a III–V compound semiconductor-fabrication process using a high-performance GaAs substrate based on the integration passivation device (IPD) fabrication process. A compact dual-mode BPF with low insertion loss and high return loss is designed and fabricated. Two extra transmission zeros (TZs) located in the high-frequency range increase the wide stopband, and the two TZs near the passband result in a higher selectivity. A resonant frequency centered at 7.45 GHz with an insertion loss of −1.21 dB and a measured return loss of higher than −23.53 dB and 3 dB fractional bandwidths of 5.8% are achieved. The stopband can be suppressed up to 20 GHz owing to the two tunable TZs resulting in higher selectivity and wideband rejection. The size of the filter was drastically optimized using a simplified architecture of two FOLRs and SLRs.
