This study proposes a circuit structure with reconfigurable multiple bands bandpass filter. This circuit can provide a triple-band or dual-band bandpass facility by adjusting two open stubs (L6 and L7) location. The circuit design used three sections of transmission line in series, the two sets of the coupled lines connected to the gap in each transmission line, and two open stubs in the appropriate locations. The design and manufacturing of the circuit structure is innovative and simple. The center frequencies of the triple-band bandpass filter are set at 2.4, 4.2, and 6.5 GHz, respectively, while the center frequencies of the dual-band bandpass filter are the two lower pass band of the triple-band bandpass filter at 2.4 and 4.2GHz. The filters were simulated using the full-wave electromagnetic simulator, IE3D, and measured by Anritsu-37269D. The simulated and measured results show good agreement in the frequency of interest.

This paper studies a very simple structure for dual-band bandpass filter. Filter is composed of two asymmetric coupled resonator circuit by two sets of different size stepped impedance resonator. This circuit applied microstrip line, coupling principle and impedance ratio by controlling the stepped impedance resonator to control the center frequency 2.6/5.2 GHz of the first and the second bandpass filter. The basic structure of the filter is constituted by the three sections of transmission line and two sets of SIR, that is, in two gaps of the three sections of transmission line parallel connection the equivalent inductances and capacitor of the two sets of SIR in series with the resonant circuit (LCL) to constitute bandpass filter. The low frequency 2.6 GHz is through the upper half of low impedance SIR, and the high frequency 5.2 GHz is through the lower half of high impedance SIR. This paper presents the design of asymmetric SIR-based dual-band bandpass filter, the filter structure is simple, easy to produce and can control the characteristics of the passband center frequency. By electromagnet simulation software( IE3D ) to simulate, the actual production of the circuit using a vector analyzer measurement, simulation and measurement results show good consistency.

This paper presents an inter-connected side-shorted coupled-line resonator topology as a base cell. The base cell is built from two single-shorted quarter-wavelength coupled-line sections, connected in series to give a half-wavelength coupled-line that creates a single resonance of bandpass filter response. Higher-order bandpass filter is produced by adding new single-shorted coupled-line sections, cascaded in an inter-connected manner to the base cell. This new topology creates a unique arrangement that caused cross coupling effects between the resonators, resulting to the occurrence of transmission zeros that lead to the improvement of selectivity of the higher order bandpass filter response. For validation of concept, 2<sup>nd</sup> and 3<sup>rd</sup> order bandpass filters were fabricated using microstrip technology on Roger 3210 substrate with parameter of <em>Ɛr</em> = 10.2, <em>h</em> = 1.27 mm and <em>tan δ</em> = 3x10-3. The filters were measured and the results show good agreement with simulation results.

AbstractThis paper presents a compact quad-band bandpass filter (QB-BPF) using double-diplexing structure, which consists of two channel filters and a pair of modified manifold-coupled lines. Each channel filter is realized by the asymmetrical coupling shorted stub loaded stepped-impedance resonator (SSLSIR) dual-band bandpass filter (DB-BPF), and the modified manifold line constructed by lumped elements is proposed to connect two channel filters to constitute the QB-BPF. The fabricated QB-BPF occupies a compact circuit size of 0.178λ

A novel coupled-line circuit configuration is proposed to design small-size dual-band Wilkinson power dividers. This proposed power divider consists of three sections of coupled lines and two isolation resistors. The analytical design theory is given and the electrical parameters analysis is provided. Six numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the flexible dual-band applications. To avoid a negative isolation resistor, a practical power divider operating at 1GHz and 2.2GHz with two positive-value resistors is designed. The calculated and full-wave simulated results verify our proposed idea. Keywords: Coupled-line, dual-band, power divider.
