Small Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Bandpass Filter With Notched Band

A compact ultra-wideband (UWB) bandpass filter (BPF) with notched band has been proposed and implemented in this letter. H-shaped slot is studied and adopted to tighten the coupling of inter-digital capacitor in order to improve the BPF's performance. Three pairs of tapered defected ground structures (DGS) are formed to assign their transmission zeros towards the out of band signal, thereby suppressing the spurious passband. Combining these two structures we obtain a small sized UWB BPF. Meander line slot is developed to reject the undesired wireless local-area network (WLAN) radio signals. An experimental UWB filter with notched band was fabricated with 35% less length as compared to an embedded open-circuited stub. The measured BPF insertion loss is less than 1.0 dB throughout the pass band of 2.8 to 10.8 GHz, the variation of group delay less than 0.20 ns in this band except for the notched band, and a wide stopband bandwidth with 20 dB attenuation up to at least 20.0 GHz.

A 3.3 mW K-Band 0.18-μ m 1P6M CMOS Active Bandpass Filter Using Complementary Current-Reuse Pair

This letter presents a low-power active bandpass filter (BPF) at K-band fabricated by the standard 0.18 mum 1P6M CMOS technology. The proposed filter is evolved from the conventional half-wavelength resonator filter, using the complementary-conducting-strip transmission line (CCS TL) as the half-wavelength resonator. Furthermore, the complementary MOS cross-couple pair is proposed as a form of current-reuse scheme for achieving low-power consumption and high Q-factor simultaneously. The simulated results indicate that the Q-factor of the proposed half-wavelength resonator can be boosted from 9 to 513 at 25.65 GHz compared with the resonator enhanced by the nMOS cross-couple pair to Q-factor of merely 43 under the same power consumption. The proposed active BPF of order two occupies the chip area of 360 mum times 360 mum without contact pads. The measured results show that the center frequency of the active BPF is 22.70 GHz and a bandwidth of 1.68 GHz (7.39 %). The measured P_{1 dB} and noise figure at 22.70 GHz are -7.65 dBm and 14.05 dB, respectively. There is a 56.84 dB suppression between the fundamental tone and the second harmonic when the input power is -11.26 dBm. While showing 0 dB loss and some residual gain, the active BPF consumes 2.0 mA at 1.65 V supply voltage with maximum of 0.15 dB insertion loss and 9.96 dB return loss at pass band.     

Miniaturized dual-band bandpass filter with good frequency selectivity using SIR and DGS

A miniaturized dual-band bandpass filter (BPF) using stepped impedance resonator (SIR) and defected ground structure (DGS) is presented. In order to get two desired passbands, two different transmission paths and source–load cross coupling have been implemented. One path is the SIR, and the other is the DGS. Meanwhile, it is easy to obtain good frequency selectivity by introducing several transmission zeros. The coupling scheme and current distributions are applied to demonstrate the flexible design approach. A dual-band BPF is designed, simulated, and fabricated to demonstrate the performance of the proposed dual-band filter. The measured results show that the fabricated dual-band BPF has two passbands centered at 2.41 and 3.52 GHz with the fractional bandwidth of 5.8 and 7.7%, respectively. The measured insertion loss is about 2 dB and 2.2 dB at the lower and upper passbands. The measured results show good agreement with the simulated ones.     

Broadband Cascade Quadruplet Bandpass Filter With Low-Temperature Co-Fired Ceramic Technology

The broadband bandpass filter (BPF) designed with low-temperature co-fired ceramic technology has been proposed in this letter. By adopting a quadruple resonator, the broadband BPF with compact size can be fabricated. A quadruple resonator with metal-insulator-metal capacitors is employed to make inductive and capacitive couplings. The coupling scheme can create two transmission zeros at both sides of passband skirts by appropriately selecting the coupling coefficient. The center frequency and bandwidth ratio of this filter are 3.875 GHz and 50%, respectively. This filter can increase the sensitivity and linearity in the wireless communication system as well     

Novel Broadband Bandpass Filters Using Y-Shaped Dual-Mode Microstrip Resonators

A Y-shaped dual-mode microstrip bandpass filter (BPF) with input-output cross-coupling is presented. The characteristic of the Y-shaped dual-mode resonator has been investigated. The resonance frequencies of the degenerate modes can be adjusted easily to satisfy the bandwidth of the BPF. A parallel-coupling feed structure with a cross coupling has been used to generate two transmission zeros at the lower and upper stopband, which can improve the out-of-band performance. A broadband dual-mode microstrip BPF has been designed, fabricated, and measured. The simulated and measured results are in agreement generally. Within the 3.1 to 5.4 GHz bandwidth, the measured insertion loss, return loss and group delay variation are below 0.5 dB, above 15 dB, and below 0.2 ns, respectively.

Compact tri‐wideband bandpass filter with multiple transmission zeros

This paper presents a tri‐wideband bandpass filter (TWB‐BPF) with compact size, high band‐to‐band isolation, and multiple transmission zeros (TZs). The proposed TWB‐BPF is based on a multiple‐mode resonator (MMR), which is interpreted by the method of the even‐ and odd‐mode analysis technique. The MMR can excite 11 resonant modes, where the first two modes comprise the first passband, the next four modes form the second passband, and the last five modes are used to generate the third passband. In addition, 10 TZs are yielded to obtain high band‐to‐band isolation and wide stopband suppression characteristics up to 14.95f_c1 (f_c1 is the center frequency of the first passband). To verify the proposed filter, a TWB‐BPF with 3‐dB fractional bandwidths (FBWs) of 37.4%, 43.5%, and 40.4% is designed, fabricated, and measured.     

Bandpass filter design using a microstrip triangular loop resonator with dual-mode operation

A bandpass filter (BPF) design using a dual-mode microstrip triangular loop resonator is presented for the first time. The circuit produces frequency responses with one real finite frequency transmission zero and one imaginary finite frequency zero on either side of the passband. Depending on the perturbation arrangement, the nature of the coupling between degenerate modes causes the zeros to exchange their axis locations from real to imaginary and from imaginary to real while keeping their magnitude. This behavior results in frequency responses that are suitable for applications with asymmetrical requirements. Results show 8% bandwidth filters with insertion loss ranging from 0.82 dB to 1.4dB at 10 GHz. Advantages in size reduction and design flexibility are demonstrated when the triangular loop is compared to other dual-mode resonators.

Analytical design of a microstrip UWB BPF with sharp rejection

This paper presents a new Ultra-WideBand (UWB) BandPass Filter (BPF) using half-wavelength (??/2) Stepped-Impedance Stub-Loaded Resonator (SISLR). Analytical equations derived by the even-odd mode analysis show the new filter has two tunable transmission zeros at both sides of the passband to provide a sharp rejection and seven transmission poles inside the passband to achieve U.S. UWB performance. For verification, a UWB BPF is designed, fabricated and measured. The measured results show that the fabricated filter has a -3 dB fractional bandwidth from 3.0 GHz to 10.9 GHz and its insertion loss less than 0.9 dB over the whole passband. Furthermore, the new filter exhibits a simple topology, sharp rejection, and deep stopband suppression.
