Abstract
A design of multiple-stopband filters is presented for the suppression of interfering signals in UWB applications. Since possible interferers can be located at fixed frequencies or within a defined frequency band, the design of both fixed and tunable narrow stopband filter sections is addressed. For multiple fixed stopband filters, bent resonators, coupled to the main line, are introduced in order to more effectively suppress harmonics. A new tunable tapped stopband section is proposed, which allows the simultaneous control of stopband frequency and bandwidth. The final multiple-stopband design combines fixed and tunable sections and simultaneously suppresses interferences from global system for mobile communication, wireless local area network, worldwide interoperability for microwave access, and industrial-scientific-medical applications. Measurements verify the design process
