Abstract

This paper presents two dual-band bandpass filters with controllable passband frequencies and bandwidths. The filters are realized utilizing a novel quad-mode stub-loaded ring resonator. All the four mode equivalent circuits of the resonator are quarter-wavelength resonators, and their fundamental resonance frequencies are used to form the passbands. So the designed filters have a compact circuit size and relatively wide upper stopband. For validation, two experimental filters operating at 1.5/2.4 GHz and 1.5/3.5 GHz are designed. In the design of the second filter, hook-shape feed-lines and source-load coupling are applied to generate more transmission zeros, which greatly improve the selectivity of the filter. Finally, the filters are fabricated, and measured. The measured results have good agreement with the simulated ones.
