Abstract
This work develops two harmonic‐suppressing bandpass filters. One has a direct‐coupled‐resonator structure and the other has a cross‐coupled‐resonator structure. The triangular open‐loop stepped‐impedance resonator is used to synthesize filters because it can create two tunable transmission zeros to suppress multi‐spurious responses in the upper stopband. The coupling coefficients of typical coupled pairs of resonators and the external quality factors of two basic feeding configurations are exploited in filter synthesis. A three‐pole Chebyshev filter and a four‐pole selective‐response filter are designed and fabricated herein. The first spurious peaks of these two experimental filters occur at five times and four times the operating frequency, respectively. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this letter, a highly selective microstrip bandpass filter using triangular open‐loop resonators with improved cross‐coupled structure is designed, fabricated, and measured. The new cross coupling structure is implemented by inserting two L‐shaped stubs into the triangular open‐loop
## Abstract This paper describes the microstrip stepped‐impedance resonator (SIR) bandpass filter with an over‐coupling structure for the suppression of spurious response at twice the center frequency (2f~__0__~). In addition, the tapped I/O is used in the filter to create the extra transmission ze

## Abstract A compact dual‐band bandpass filter (BPF) realized with stepped impedance resonators (SIR) and T‐shaped line is proposed in this article. By appropriately selecting the impedance ratio of the SIR, a passband around at 5.4 GHz can be achieved by the second harmonic frequency of the SIR.
