Abstract
In this paper, a high-performance microstrip diplexer is designed and manufactured. The design is based on two pairs rectangular open-loop resonators band-pass filters and a novel zigzag junction. It operates at 3.5 GHz for fifth-generation 5G sub-6-GHz and 5 GHz for Wi-Fi communications. The proposed diplexer is considerably miniaturized with a global compact size of 30×17 mm2. In addition, it presents low insertion losses less than 0.5 dB at both channels in comparison with the previous diplexers. Moreover, the isolation is higher than 20 dB, and the return loss is better than 14 dB at the bandwidths. To confirm the simulation results, the presented diplexer is manufactured and measured where a good agreement is carried out.
