A design of a microstrip quad-band BPF with flexibly controlled bandwidth is presented in this paper. Two dual-mode short-circuited SLRs with a common via-hole are proposed, which are utilized to obtain the first and second passband, while the third passband is generated by implementing the second-order half-wavelength coupled-line resonator. Another dual-mode open-circuited SLR can be operated at the fourth passband. The proposed quad-band BPF is centered at 1.80/2.45/3.50/4.90 GHz for DCS/WLAN/WiMAX and 5G applications. By appropriately choosing the lengths of the four sets of resonators, all passbands can be fully varied independently with minimal effect on other passbands. Moreover, the bandwidth of each passband can be flexibly controlled by tuning the coupling parameters. The dimension of the fabricated proposed filter is about 0.12 × 0.20 λg, indicating the compactness of the design, whereas the measurements are in good agreement with the simulated results. The measured S11 are at least 12 dB in the four passbands. The passbands S21 are approximately 0.65, 1.42, 0.78, and 1.20 dB, which exhibit low insertion loss at the passband frequency of the first, second, third, and fourth passband, respectively. |
