In this paper, an offset posts K-band bandpass filter has been designed using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW). SIW is formed inside a dielectric material by applying a top metal over the ground plane and trapping the structure on either side with rows of plated vias. SIW is effective and efficient solution in waveguide technique. The slotted windows are cut in tapered transition of SIW filter to attain low loss. The proposed filters are designed at 23 GHz center frequency. The simulated results exhibit low losses and sharp roll off characteristics in pass band. There is good agreement between the simulated results and the experimental results. The proposed filter is suitable for use in microwave communication devices.

A compact 60-GHz on-chip bandpass filter (BPF) is presented using gallium arsenide (GaAs) technology. The miniaturization is achieved by the half-mode substrate-integrated waveguide (HMSIW) structure. Finally, a prototype of the BPF is fabricated and tested to validate the proposed idea, whose simulated and measured results are in good agreement. The measurements show that it has a center frequency at 58.6 GHz with a bandwidth of 17.9%, and the minimum insertion loss within the passband is 1.2 dB. The chip, excluding the feedings, is only about 0.38λg × 0.58λg, where λg is the guided wavelength at the center frequency.

Hexagonal dual-mode cavity and its application to substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) filter are presented. The hexagonal SIW resonator which can combine flexibility of rectangular cavity and performance of circular cavity is convenient for dual-mode bandpass filters design. By introducing coupling between source and load, the filter not only has good selectivity due to two controllable transmission zeros, but also has a small size by the virtue of its single-cavity structure. A demonstration filter with a center frequency of 10 GHz and a 3 dB fractional bandwidth of 4% is designed and fabricated to validate the proposed structure. Measured results are in good agreement with simulated ones.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present the design of a compact microstrip bandpass filter (BPF) in dual-mode configuration loaded with cross-loop and square ring slots on a square patch resonator for C-band applications. Design/methodology/approach In the proposed design, the dual-mode response for the filter is realized with two transmission zeros (TZs) by the insertion of a perturbation element at the diagonal corner of the square patch resonator with orthogonal feed lines. Such TZs at the edges of the passband result in better selectivity for the proposed BPF. Moreover, the cross-loop and square ring slots are etched on a square patch resonator to obtain a miniaturized BPF. Findings The proposed dual-mode microstrip filter fabricated in RT/duroid 6010 substrate using PCB technology has a measured minimum insertion loss of 1.8 dB and return loss better than 24.5 dB with a fractional bandwidth (FBW) of 6.9%. A compact size of 7.35 × 7.35 mm2 is achieved for the slotted patch resonator-based dual-mode BPF at the center frequency of 4.76 GHz. As compared with the conventional square patch resonator, a size reduction of 61% is achieved with the proposed slotted design. The feasibility of the filter design is confirmed by the good agreement between the measured and simulated responses. The performance of the proposed filter structure is compared with other dual-mode filter works. Originality/value In the proposed work, a compact dual-mode BPF is reported with slotted structures. The conventional square patch resonator is deployed with cross-loop and square ring slots to design a dual-mode filter with a square perturbation element at its diagonal corner. The proposed filter exhibits compact size and favorable performance compared to other dual-mode filter works reported in literature. The aforementioned design of the dual-mode BPF at 4.76 GHz is suitable for applications in the lower part of the C-band.

This paper presents a low loss fully embedded bandpass filter (BPF) using low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) for multilayer System-in-Package (SiP) and Multi-Chip-Module (MCM) applications, e.g. wireless applications for the unlicensed 60 GHz band. The measured insertion loss was 1.5 dB at the center frequency 58 GHz, and a return loss of less than −10 dB was achieved, including two grounded coplanar waveguide transmission line (CPWg) to stripline transitions. The four layers BPF has a 3 dB bandwidth of about 11 GHz which supplies e.g. broadband and high data rate applications. The whole BPF requires a substrate area of 5.6 × 2.1 × 0.42 mm3 with transitions and a shielding via fence. This BPF suits well for V-band applications in a LTCC package because of the compact dimensions and the good performance.

This paper presents a novel ultracompact narrow bandpass filter with high selectivity. The proposed filter is composed of cascading two basic cells. Each cell is basically a microstrip line loaded with a quasiplanar resonator and series gaps which can be fabricated using a standard multilayer printed circuit board technology. The structure is analyzed through an equivalent circuit and full-wave simulations. The simulation results are compared with experimental measurements demonstrating a good agreement between them. The measurement indicates that the realized bandpass filter at the center frequency of 1 GHz has a fractional bandwidth of 2.2%. Most importantly, in comparison with other similar recent works, it is shown that the proposed filter has the smallest size.

This paper proposes a method for designing a quadruple-mode wideband bandpass filter using off-centered perturbed metallic cylinders in a rectangular waveguide cavity with compact size and improved out-of-band rejection. Two off-centered perturbation cylinders were placed at the bottom of the rectangular waveguide cavity along with a pair of perpendicularly-fed coaxial lines, which excited four quasi-transverse magnetic (TM) modes to realize the desired passband. The height of the waveguide cavity and the shape of the perturbation cylinders were exploited to achieve an all quasi-TM modes filter with good out-of-band rejection and sharp skirt selectivity. The proposed filter operates at 2.93 GHz center frequency with 38% wide fractional bandwidth (FBW). The proposed filter is fabricated using aluminum. The measured and simulated results are in good agreement with each other.

In this paper, a dual-wideband bandpass filter (BPF) with independently controllable center frequencies (CFs) and wide stopband suppression is presented using a new quintuple-mode resonator (QMR). By applying the classical odd-/even-mode analysis method, the resonant characteristics of the new QMR have been analyzed. It shows that five modes can be excited, and two of them can be employed to form the lower passband, while the other three modes contribute to the higher passband. For verification, a dual-wideband BPF using the new QMR is designed, fabricated, and tested. Experimental results show that the CFs of the dual-wideband BPF centered at 2.96 GHz and 5.695 GHz with 3 dB fractional bandwidths of 27.7 and 23.4%, respectively. In addition, 20-dB suppression in upper-stopband ranges from 2.23 to 4.04f0, where f0 is the center frequency of the first passband. The measurement results are in good agreement with the prediction results.

This paper proposes bandwidth enhancement of a cavity-backed slot antenna using a triangular slot on a half-mode substrate integrated waveguide structure antenna. The bandwidth enhancement was achieved by combining the fixed TE101 and the downward shifting TE102 modes, resulting in hybrid modes. The design evolution of the slot antenna from a half nonresonating rectangular slot to a triangular slot antenna increased the fractional bandwidth. The simulation result showed that fractional bandwidth increased from 6.27% to 9.1%. It was confirmed by measurement that the fractional bandwidth of 9.87% was achieved which reflects a 350 MHz bandwidth with center frequency at 3.84 GHz. The measured gain at center frequency was 4.2 dBi. It is shown that the radiation characteristics obtained from both measurement and simulation results are in very good agreement.
