Özet

In this paper, novel compact wideband filters have been implemented using a stub-loaded microstrip resonator based on a circular open-loop configuration for the first time. To offer an alternative wideband filter configuration, the quadruple-/quintuple-mode wideband bandpass filters (BPFs) using stub-loaded circular microstrip resonator (SLCMR) and parallel-coupled microstrip line (PCML) feed configuration are proposed. They are realized by employing a single open stub and two open stubs, respectively. A half-wavelength (>lambda/2) circular microstrip resonator (CMR) loaded with two open stubs excites three resonant modes, while the one with a single stub produces two resonant modes. One of the modes is odd-mode generated by a lambda/2 CMR, the others are even-modes excited by the two loading stubs. The PCML with enhanced input/output (I/O) coupling degree excites also two modes in the passband. Two loading stubs not only creates transmission poles in the passband, they also create two transmission zeros in the lower and upper stopbands. The quadruple-/quintuple-mode wideband BPFs with fractional bandwidths FBW of 60% and 62% are successfully realized by using the SLCMR and PCML feed configuration together. Both filters are designed, fabricated, and tested where excellent agreement between simulated and measured results is observed.
