Abstract
This article proposes a compact multilayer band‐pass filter based on low‐temperature co‐fired ceramic (LTCC) technology.The filter is constructed using U‐type stepped impedance resonators (SIR) with microstrip input and output ports. To validate the proposed filter, a three‐order X‐band Chebyshev band‐pass filter is developed and verified by full‐wave simulation. The proposed filter is fabricated using multilayer LTCC technology and measured using vector network analyzer (VNA). Covering area of the fabricated band‐pass filter is only 15.3 × 6.7 mm^2^ (including via fences). The filter exhibits an insertion loss of lower than 1.8 dB with a 3.2% bandwidth at a center frequency of 9.5 GHz, and the return loss is better than 10 dB in the pass‐band. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this letter, a multilayered dual‐band bandpass filter (BPF) using cross‐coupled stepped impedance resonators (SIRs) is designed and implemented. By determining the impedance ratio (K) and physical length (α) of the SIRs, the dual‐band response at 2.4/5.2 GHz can be achieved. Cross‐co
