Synthesis of differential-mode bandpass filter (BPF) with good common-mode suppression has been described and demonstrated on the basis of ring dielectric resonator (RDR) for high-performance communication system. A RDR with two pairs of feeding lines has been used to excite TE01δ-mode. This unique combination of feeding lines and the ring resonator creates a differential passband. Meanwhile, TM01δ-mode of the DR can also be excited to achieve common-mode rejection in the stopband. Transmission zeros are created in the lower and upper stopband to further improve the selectivity of the proposed BPF. A second-order differential BPF is designed, fabricated and its performance is measured to validate the concept. There is good agreement between simulated and measured results.

Abstract A compact balanced bandpass filter (BPF) based on complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) -loaded substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structure is reported in this paper. Both TE102 and TE201 modes of the SIW cavity can be excited under differential-mode (DM) operation with the proper positions of the balanced feeds. Meanwhile, the CSRR etched on the top layer of the substrate can also be excited by the axial electric excitation. Then, three transmission poles and two transmission zeros (TZs) have been obtained which improve the selectivity of the DM passband. To verify the above design concept, an X-band prototype operating at 8 GHz has been fabricated and measured. A good agreement is observed between the simulations and the measurements.

AbstractIn this paper, a tunable balanced-to-balanced in-phase filtering power divider (FPD) is designed, which can realize a two-way equal power division with high selectivity and isolation. A differential-mode (DM) passband with a steep filtering performance is realized by applying microstrip stub-loaded resonators (SLRs). Meanwhile, six varactors are loaded to the SLRs to achieve the center frequency (CF) and bandwidth adjustment, respectively. U-type microstrip lines integrated with stepped impedance slotline resonators are utilized as the differential feedlines, which suppress the common-mode (CM) intrinsically, making the DM responses independent of the CM ones. A tuning center frequency from 3.2 to 3.75 GHz and a fractional bandwidth (12.1–17.6%) with more than 10 dB return loss and less than 2.3 dB insertion loss can be achieved by changing the voltage across the varactors. A good agreement between the simulated and measured results is observed. To the best of authors' knowledge, the proposed balanced-to-balanced tunable FPD is first ever reported.

AbstractA tunable balanced bandpass filter (BPF) with a good common-mode (CM) suppression based on slotline resonators is proposed in this letter. Two novel stub-loaded slotline resonators (SLSRs) terminated with varactors are designed to obtain tunable differential-mode (DM) responses. It is found that a high and wideband CM suppression can be achieved by employing balanced stepped-impedance microstrip-slotline transition structures. Moreover, the DM passbands are independent from the CM ones, which can significantly simplify the design procedure. To validate the design theory, a compact tunable balanced BPF with an operating frequency band ranging from 3.09 GHz to 3.6 GHz is designed and fabricated. The measured results are found to agree well with the simulated ones.

Abstract A compact dual-band balanced bandpass filter with high frequency selectivity and adjustable passband based on the perturbed circular substrate integrated waveguide cavity is firstly proposed in this paper. Two pairs of metallic vias are located at 45°direction of cavities to separate a pair of degenerate modes (TM110 modes) to achieve the differential-mode (DM) dual-band response. Moreover, the perturbation vias can also be used to control the center frequency of the second DM passband while the first one still stays unaffected. The introduction of source-load coupling makes the filter exhibit excellent selectivity. And four controllable transmission zeros appear near two DM passbands. Finally, good common-mode suppression has been got owing to the proposed balanced structure. The measured results are in accordance with the simulated ones well.

AbstractDifferential bandpass filters (BPFs) named Filter A and Filter B based on Terminated Coupled Lines (TCLs) are proposed in this letter. The TCLs contributes to not only three poles in differential-mode (DM) for wideband filtering response but also multiple zeros in both DM and common-mode (CM) offering wide DM out-of-band rejection and good CM suppression. Fabricated filters centred at 3.5 GHz with wide DM passband and wideband CM suppression have been designed and measured. The filters improved the noise suppression capability of the communication and radiometer systems. The simulated and measured results are in good agreement.

This letter presents a microstrip differential-mode (DM) bandpass filter (BPF) with high and wide stopband suppression under both DM and common-mode (CM) operations. A new coupling topology is formed up to realize the DM BPF by integrating a pair of λ/2 microstrip transmission lines and two multimode resonators. The DM and CM equivalent half-circuits are established to explain the operating principal. For validation, a DM BPF operating at 2.2 GHz is implemented. Experimental results indicate that the presented DM BPF exhibits not only sharp DM passband selectivity but also deep and ultrawide stopband suppression of more than 30 dB for both DM and CM.

In this paper, a novel dual-wideband balanced bandpass filter (BPF) based on branch-line structure is proposed. For analysis, the equivalent circuits of differential-mode (DM) and common-mode (CM) of the filter are built based on the even- and odd-mode method. With a proper synthesis design of DM bisection, dual passbands with a multi-order filtering response can be obtained. Additionally, three open-circuited stubs are centrally loaded on the CM bisection and six controllable transmission zeros are therefore generated. Thus, two stopbands are formed and then a favorable CM suppression within DM passbands is obtained. For demonstration, a third-order dual-wideband balanced BPF is designed with two passbands operating at 2.54 and 4.62 GHz. Good agreement between the simulated results and measured results is obtained, which verifies the validity of the proposed design method.
