Abstract

A compact dual-band bandpass filter (BPF) based on parallel coupled lines and shorted stubs has been presented in this Letter. The transmission and reflection coefficients of the proposed dual-band BPF are straightforwardly derived via the input impedances using odd- and even-mode analysis methods. Four transmission poles in the two passbands and nine deep transmission zeros (TZs) in the stopband can be realised. The centre frequencies and bandwidths of the two passbands can be tuned by controlling the impedance parameters of the coupled lines and shorted stubs. For demonstration, a prototype example of this dual-band BPF with a small size is experimentally characterised. The measured results show that it has high-frequency selectivity with multiple TZs at the stopband.
