Abstract
AbstractA bandpass filter is designed at 2.4 GHz using two end‐connected quarter‐wavelength stepped impedance resonators. The quarter‐wavelength stepped impedance resonators having one end shorted are formed by a half‐wavelength stepped impedance resonator with its middle shorting to ground. The modes that the shorted‐end λ/4 stepped impedance resonator supports are the (1 + 2n)/4. An enhanced U‐shape coupling feed is adopted in the filter design to reduce the insertion losses as well as to suppress the first higher harmonic. A dual‐path design is implemented in the proposed filter to create a quasi‐elliptic frequency response. The equivalent circuit model is developed and the experiments are conducted for circuit design verification. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
