Abstract
ABSTRACT A quad-band microstrip bandpass filter (BPF) based on a 13-mode resonator is proposed in this article with compact size, high band‐to‐band isolation, and multiple transmission zeros (TZs). The proposed filter is constructed by two transmission paths from the input to the output port, which employs the transversal cancellation mechanism of two transition paths to introduce extra nine TZs. Therefore, a total of 12 TZs are located at 0.2, 1.8, 2, 3.88, 4.61, 5.24, 5.9, 9.26, 9.51, 12.32, 12.75, and 13.27 GHz, respectively, realizing high selectivity. Moreover, the designed filter can achieve quad passbands with centered frequency at 0.95, 2.78, 7.32, and 10.63 GHz for the requirement of multi-service in modern communication systems, with wide bandwidth of 235, 790, 2200, and 1540 MHz, respectively. The measured results agree well with the simulation results, which proves the feasibility of the design method.
