A Miniaturized Dual-Mode Ring Bandpass Filter With a New Perturbation

摘要

A miniaturized dual-mode ring bandpass filter at 1.45 GHz with a bandwidth of 6% is demonstrated. The perturbation of the dual modes is realized by a pair of local ground defects. The miniaturization is achieved by loading the peripheral of the ring with the butterfly radial stub structure. A 41% loading factor has been achieved using this method. The simulated and measured results are in good agreement.
