Recently, a multilayer structure is very imperative to minimize the size of planar microstrip filters. In the flexible design and incorporation of other microwave components, a multilayer band-pass filter provides another dimension. This paper, therefore, introduces a band-pass filter of 2.52-2.65 GHz for digital broadcast applications using parallel-coupled line (PCL) and multilayer(ML) hairpin resonator. The targeted four-pole resonator has a center frequency of 2.58 GHz with a bandwidth of 130 MHz. The hairpin-line offers compact filter design structures. The proposed configuration of the parallel-coupled line (PCL) resonator is used to design the ML band-pass filter. The FR4 substrate with a dielectric constant (εr) of 4.3 and 1.6 mm thickness was used. Comparison analysis between the simulated insertion loss and the reflection coefficient of substrates RO3003 and FR4 was performed to verify the efficiency of the proposed filter design. Simulation of PCL filter is accomplished using computer simulation technology (CST)and an advanced design system(ADS). The PCL bandpass filter was experimentally validated and good agreement between simulation and measured results were achieved showing a well-measured reflection coefficient. The simulated results of the ML bandpass filter show that the circuit performs well, and the filter size is significantly reduced.

In this paper, a wideband bandpass filter with a coupled line cross-shaped resonator (CLCSR) is proposed. The proposed bandpass filter is composed of two open-end parallel coupled lines, one short-end parallel coupled line, one branch microstrip line, and the parallel coupled line feed structure. With the use of the even and odd mode approach, the transmission zeros and transmission poles of the proposed bandpass filter are analyzed. The coupling coefficient of the parallel coupled line feed structure is big, so the distance between the parallel coupled line is too small to be processed. A three microstirp lines coupled structure is used to realize strong coupling and cross coupling. This structure also can reduce the return loss in passband and increase the out-of-band rejection. The transmission zeros can be adjusted easily by varying the lengths of the open-end parallel coupled line or the short-end parallel coupled line. The proposed bandpass filter is fabricated and measured. The simulated results agree well with the measured ones, which shows that the design method is valid.

<p>In this paper, the bandwidth enhancement of bandpass filter (BPF) is proposed by utilizing defected microstrip structure (DMS). The initial micro strip BPF which is designed to have the bandwidth 1GHz with the center frequency of 3.5GHz is deployed on FR4 Epoxy dielectric substrate with overall size and thickness of 14mm x 24mm and 1.6mm, respectively. The proposed filter consists of two parallel coupled lines centred by ring-shaped, to enhance the bandwidth response, an attempt is carried out by applying DMS on the ligne center with a ring-shaped of initial filter. Here, the proposed DMS is constructed of the arrowhead dumbbell. Some parametrical studies to the DMS such as changing to obtain the optimum geometry of DMS with the desired bandwidth response. From the characterization result, it shows that the utilization of DMS on to the microstrip ligne of filter has widened 3dB bandwidth response up to 1.8GHz ranges from 2.55GHz to 4.35GHz yielding an enhanced wideband response for various wideband wireless applications.</p>

In this paper, a compact bandpass filter with improved band stop and band pass characteristics for wireless applications is built with four internal conductive poles in a single resonating cavity, which adds novel quad-resonating modes to the realization of band pass filter. This paper covers the design and testing of the S-band combline coaxial cavity filter which is beneficial in efficient filtering functions in wireless communication system design. The metallic cavity high Q coaxial resonators have the advantages of narrowband, low loss, better selectivity and high potential for power handling, as compared to microstrip filter in the application to determine the quality factor of motor oils. Furthermore, the tuning of coupling screws in the combline filter allows in frequency and bandwidth adjustments. An impedance bandwidth of 500 MHz (fractional bandwidth of 12.8%) has been achieved with an insertion loss of less than 2.5 dB and return loss of 18 dB at the resonant frequency. Four-pole resonating cavity filters have been developed with the center frequency of 4.5 GHz. Insert loss at 0 dB and estimated bandwidth at 850 MHz and a quality factor of 4.3 for the band pass frequencies between 4 and 8 GHz is seen in the simulated result.

In this study, the proposed bandpass filter (BPF) connects an interdigital and a spiral capacitor in series between the two symmetrical halves of a circular intertwined spiral inductor. For the mass production of devices and to achieve a higher accuracy and a better performance compared with other passive technologies, we used integrated passive device (IPD) technology. IPD has been widely used to realize compact BPFs and achieve the abovementioned. The center frequency of the proposed BPF is 1.96 GHz, and the return loss, insertion loss and transmission zero are 26.77 dB, 0.27 dB and 38.12 dB, respectively. The overall dimensions of BPFs manufactured using IPD technology are 984 × 800 μ m 2 , which is advantageous for miniaturization and integration.

The design and simulation of coplanar waveguide (CPW) bandpass filter (BPF) has been described in this paper. It mainly focuses on Defected Ground Structure (DGS), where U-shaped DGS with open stub in transmission line has been introduced. By etching the DGS pattern in ground and transmission will change the distribution of inductance and capacitance to produce filtering effect. This paper also discusses about the influence of geometrical parameter l for the improvement in the frequency response of bandpass filter. As increasing the dimension of the geometric parameter l shift the center frequency to the higher frequencies. This filter offers a bandwidth of 1.65 GHz with passband ranging from 2.1 GHz to 3.75 GHz with a stopband rejection is about -28 dB.

In telecommunication, filters are often used to pass the desired frequency. One of them is the Band-Pass Filter (BPF) which is passing signals between the upper cut-off frequency and the lower cut-off frequency. This research aims to make a band-pass filter that can pass 3 GHz frequency with a bandwidth of 200 MHz. This filter is designed with a square open-loop resonator simulated using Advanced Design System (ADS) software. The filter is made using FR 4-epoxy substrates with a dielectric constant (ε ) of 4.6 and substrate thickness (h) of 1.6 mm. Based on the simulation results obtained in the form of a comparison graph between the response of magnitude to frequency, it shows that the value of the return loss (S 11 ) parameter of -23.549 dB, insertion loss (S 21 ) parameter value of -1.397 dB, and a slightly shifted middle frequency of 2.890 GHz. Then for the measurement results obtained a parameter value return loss (S 11 ) of -16.364 dB, parameter value insertion loss (S 21 ) of -3.561 dB with a center frequency of 3.185 GHz.
