Abstract

Multiband bandpass filter (BPF) design is proposed by utilizing E-plane septa to introduce transmission zeros in-band for waveguide application. Due to the unique employment of E-plane septa, multiband BPF responses are flexible to realize. Since number of transmission zeros is strongly dependent on the structure of employed septa, by adjusting the parameters of septa, dual-band, tri-band, and quad-band, multiband BPF responses are presented. While various multiband responses can be achieved without changing the structure, it is more competitive and compatible. Somehow, tri-band and quadband W-band filters are fabricated for validation of the design technique for multiband BPF applications.

1 | INTRODUTION

There is an increasing demand for multiband bandpass filter (BPF) with high performance, easy manufacturing, and excellent compatibility in wireless communication, radar, and satellite applications. Numerous multiband filters have been designed on microstrip,15 however, so far there are scarcely any approaches on tri-band or more passbands design with waveguide structure. Using evanescent mode or resonant cavity, dual-band BPFs with large size and expensive fabrication are reported in ref. 6,7 In addition, based on E-plane resonators with a metal wall or double-layer configuration adopted, dual-band BPFs are presented.8,9 While E- plane septa is a crucial item in filter design, it has only been applied to wide bandwidth BPF.10 Moreover, considering the complexity of forming passbands directly, it is more convenient to allocate transmission zeros suitably to the whole band for more passbands.

In this letter, multiband BPF design for waveguide application is proposed, which utilizes E-plane septa to introduce transmission zeros in-band for flexible realization of multiband. By varying dimensions of septa, number and location of transmission zeros can be adjusted. In this way, to the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that dual-band, tri-band, and quad-band multiband BPFs have been designed utilizing the same structure.

2 | DESIGN PROCEDURES

2.1 | E-plane septa structure

The configuration of E-plane septa in waveguide is shown in Figure 1, where gap is etched to divide traditional E-plane

septa into two independent parts. For one of these two structures, the double resonant cavities can be coupled to each other through septa. Thus not only signal paths, but design freedoms are increased for improving filter passbands and performance.

Figure 2A plots the coupling scheme of proposed multiband BPFs design, where S and L are source/load terminals. While I-IV are four resonator nodes, the solid/dashed line represents main/weak coupling. For simplicity, the highly symmetrical coupling scheme can be investigated by resource/load terminals and one single resonator node whose corresponding response is shown in solid line in Figure 2B. It means that one passband with two transmission zeros located at two sides can be produced by one single node. Two notches in-band are created by the resonator node, apparently, while coupling from source to load has allpass property. Therefore, it is obvious that number of passbands is correlated with number of resonator nodes as shown in Figure 2B. Consequently, there are at least four resonant cavities needed for quad-band design. Since nodes I and III (or nodes II and IV) are symmetrical, transmission zeros caused by nodes I and II can be made to coincide. While node I and node II (or node III and node IV) are also symmetrical, with the coupling of two nodes, resonant frequency will split into two called even and odd modes. Hence, by adjusting these four resonant nodes and their coupling strength, dual-band, tri-band, and quad-band multiband BPFs can be designed with resonant nodes: I-IV.

2.2 | MULTIBAND BPFs DESIGN

Moreover, coupling of these two nodes is directly related with the width of septa, which means transmission zeros can

be allocated suitably in-band by changing the width of septa. As Figure 3 depicts, double passbands are formed with triple groups of transmission zeros. It is demonstrated that transmission zeros in Figure 4 can be separated into quadruple groups and triple passbands are presented. Meanwhile, Figure 5 shows quintuple groups of transmission zeros that are corresponding to quadruple passbands for multiband application. In this letter, tri-band and quad-band multiband filters are fabricated on Rogers 5880 with dielectric constant of 2.2 and thickness of 0.127 mm as examples to validate the technique.

The photography of proposed tri-band and quad-band BPFs is depicted in Figure 6. The dimensions of tri-band filter are as follows: W1 = W3 = 0.75, W2 = 1.2, W4 = W6 = 1, W5 = 0.95, G1 = G2 = 0.9, G3 = G4 = 1.25, S1 = S2 = 0.1, D1 = D3 = 0.235, D2 = 0.6, all in mm. The measured minimum insertion loss of triple passbands is 1.37 dB,

0.85 dB, and 0.93 dB with a 3-dB fraction bandwidth of 10.56%, 6.35%, and 5.09%, respectively. Seven transmission zeros are allocated at 79.55, 80.51, 91.80, 100.72, 101.68, 108.68, and 109.80 GHz.

In addition, the dimensions of quad-band filter are shown: W1 = W3 = 0.75, W2 = 1.2, W4 = W6 = 1, W5 = 0.95, G1 = G2 = 1.15, G3 = G4 = 1.25, S1 = S2 = 0.1, D1 = D3 = 0.235, D2 = 0.6, all in mm. The measured minimum insertion loss and 3-dB fraction bandwidth of quadruple passbands multiband BPF are 1.83/1.26/2.38/2.65 dB, and 7.67%/4.25%/3.16%/2.12%, respectively. Eight transmission zeros located at 79.81, 80.95, 89.61, 95.38, 99.23, 103.70, 105.53, and 109.90 GHz are observed.

Simulated and measured results of the proposed two multiband BPFs are shown in Figures 7 and 8, which demonstrates good agreement. Frequency shift and insertion loss deterioration can be seen between the simulation and measurement results. This is because of the fabrication tolerance, assembling and the material errors.

Abstract

In this paper, a novel dual wideband microstrip bandpass filter is proposed. The designed filter is constructed by two different stub loaded resonators located at the upper and bottom sides of the coupling line. The coupling transmission line is also connected to input and output (IO) ports. The upper resonator creates a wide passband, whereas the bottom resonator is used to create two transmission zeros in the passband. Thus, a wide passband can be divided into dual wide passbands. The bottom resonator is also utilized to improve the insertion and return losses in the passband. The designed filter is fabricated and tested in a very good agreement with the simulated results. The measured fractional bandwidths (FBWs) of the passbands are 44.6% and 24.2% at the center frequencies of 3.4 GHz and 5.51 GHz, respectively. The measured insertion losses in the passbands are 0.51 dB and 1.13 dB.

1 | INTRODUCTION

Microwave filters have an important place in space and satellite applications since they can select and limit RF/microwave signals.1 Among microwave filters, microstrip structures play a significant role due to their advantages such as easy fabrication, design variety, compactness, etc. In addition, according to the communication requirement of short range and high bandwidth, wideband microstrip bandpass
