The degenerate mode splitting of a conventional dual-mode square loop resonator and the coupling coefficient between these modes are investigated. The filter characteristic is changed by the perturbation size. Finally, a novel dual-mode microstrip bandstop filter is designed and realized using degenerate modes of dual-mode microstrip square loop resonator. Two filters are designed, fabricated, and measured to demonstrate the validity of the proposed bandstop characteristic. (C) 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
