Abstract

In this letter, a novel compact wideband bandpass filter (BPF) using single asymmetric stepped‐impedance resonator with one‐step discontinuity is designed and fabricated. The first two resonant modes of the asymmetric SIR are coupled together and applied to create a wide passband. The proposed filter at center frequency f~0~ of 4.2 GHz has very good measured characteristics including the bandwidth of 2.9–5.05 GHz (3‐dB fractional bandwidth of 52%), average low insertion loss of 0.2 dB, and sharp rejection of 53 and 88 dB/GHz in lower and higher passband edges. Additionally, the wideband BPF has a smaller circuit size in comparison of previous works. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A reduced‐size low‐loss high‐selectivity wideband microstrip bandpass filter is proposed using three λ~__g__~/4 short‐circuited stubs and folded λ~__g__~/2 connecting lines between them. The filter has 2__n__ − 1 poles within the passband, whereas it consists of only __n__ resonators. T
