Realization of a Highly Miniaturized Elliptic-Function Band-Pass Filter Using Microstrip Quasi Multi- Mode Resonator for Wide-Band Applications

Progress In Electromagnetics Research C, Vol. 14, 1-9, 2010
Abstract
A compact elliptic-function band-pass filter (BPF) is introduced using microstrip folded quasi multi-mode resonator. The prototype filter is synthesized from the two-port network and equivalent circuit models using available element value tables. To optimize the performance of the filter, electromagnetic simulation (EM) is used to tune the dimensions of the filter. The filter using dual cascaded quasi multi-mode resonators provides a very sharp cut-off frequency response with low insertion loss. It also realized a broad band pass-band, a compact size and two transmission zeros at both the lower and upper stop-bands. The filter is also evaluated by experiment and simulation with good agreement.
