Abstract

In this paper, a dual-mode bandpass filter that operates in two different bands is proposed. A circular patch with a small circular hole is set as the basic resonator, and, as the circular hole moves, the linewidth of the ring resonator becomes non-uniform. Consequently, the ring resonator is structurally asymmetric and exhibits a dual-mode characteristic. A gap is formed in the middle of the resonator, a pair of inductors and capacitors is applied to the gap, and the proposed dual-mode structure operates as a dual-band filter. The first resonant frequency <i>f</i><sub>1</sub> is determined by the inductor and capacitor values, and the second resonant frequency <i>f</i><sub>2</sub> is determined by the capacitor values. In addition, the frequency ratio (<i>f</i><sub>2</sub>/<i>f</i><sub>1</sub>) can be adjusted by an appropriate combination of inductor and capacitor values.
