Abstract
This paper presents a compact dual‐band bandpass filter (BPF) that consists of a pair of L‐shape half‐wavelength (λ/2) stepped‐impedance resonators (SIRs) and an inverted Z‐shape resonator. The latter is actually a combined structure of two λ/4 SIRs along with a magnetic coupling in between and hence designed to reduce the circuit size. Cross‐coupled SIR configuration and 0° tapped‐feed structures are adopted to introduce attenuation poles around the passband edges for selectivity improvement. A wider −20‐dB upper stopband is achieved by properly separating the third resonant frequencies of the SIRs of different types. The newly designed dual‐band BPF was verified by circuit implementation, and a very good agreement between the simulated and measured results was observed. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract This article presents a novel approach for designing dual‐ and tri‐band bandpass filters with independently controlled center frequencies and bandwidths. λ/4 and λ/2 resonators are used to obtain dual‐ and tri‐band responses. λ/4 resonators are designed to operate at the lower passband(
## Abstract We propose a compact dual band bandpass filter (BPF) using trisection stepped impedance resonators (SIRs). By appropriately selecting the impedance ratio (K) and length ratio (α) of the SIR, the harmonic frequencies can be tuned for generating the dual‐passband response. The BPF has goo
## 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
