Abstract

A dual-bandpass filter that utilizes a serial configuration of the inductive coupled-line (ICL) filter and the capacitive coupled-line (CCL) filter is investigated in this study. Numerical analysis is presented for the difference between the ICL and CCL filters. The dual-bandpass filter has a similar behavior to the individual single-band filter around the corresponding passband. An extra transmission zero can be generated between the two passbands of the dual-bandpass filter in that the ICL and CCL filters exhibit an out-of-phase response. Four architectures of dual-bandpass filters are proposed for the 2.4/5-GHz systems. Two of them are demonstrated by the low-temperature co-fired ceramic multilayer technology. Measurements results agree quite well with the simulation ones.
