Abstract
In this article, a miniaturized parallel‐coupled microstrip filter is presented. The miniaturized design saves 80% circuit dimension compared to the conventional parallel‐coupled over‐coupled end stages filter with the symmetrical tapped‐line structure. Several design methods and miniaturization techniques were involved in this study to achieve 5f~0~ stopband suppression, including symmetrical tapped‐line, stepped‐impedance structure, bended and folded of transmission lines, and the coupling effect of microstrip‐lines. Also the asymmetrical tapped‐line structure is fabricated to achieve 6__f__~0~ stopband suppression. Good agreements between the simulated and measured results were also observed in all above cases. Furthermore, no lumped elements, via‐holes, and bonding wires are necessary for this miniaturized coupler, making it very useful for the modern wireless communication systems. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this paper, we propose a novel parallel‐coupled microstrip bandpass filter with a wide stopband. The proposed bandpass filter with spur lines provides a deep and wide stopband because spur lines can provide deep stopband characteristics in some frequency bands. Also, the experimental

## Abstract A wideband bandpass filter using parallel‐coupled‐lines with periodical grooves is presented in this article. Owing to the slow wave effect brought by periodical grooves, the proposed structure's resonant frequency can be lowered effectively. This effect has been used in this article to
## Abstract This letter proposes a parallel coupled‐line bandpass filter (BPF) using the folded slotted ground structures (SGSs) to improve the wide stopband. It is shown that the designed folded SGS has a very small area in comparison of previous works. The folded SGS exhibits a dual stopband char
