Abstract :
A novel compact microstrip bandpass filter is proposed using a half-wavelength (λ/2) microstrip line resonator and an end-coupling resonator. The filter has two transmission zeros at both low and high rejection bands, as well as low insertion loss and compact design by giving two paths to the input signals. A demonstration filter has been designed and tested. Theoretical and experimental results are presented.
