Abstract :
Filters with the capacity of operation in different frequency bands are important components in new multi-band wireless communication systems. The use of dual-band resonators is a possible mechanism to create the dual-band filter. In this paper, a novel dual-band resonator based in Bulk Acoustic Wave technology is proposed. Limitations in the dual-band resonator for designing dual-band filters have been studied. A Galileo/GPS dual-band filter in ladder-type topology is designed using the proposed dual-band resonator.
