Design of Dual-Band Bandpass Filter Using Dual-Mode Defected Stub Loaded Resonator

A novel approach for designing a dual-band bandpass filter (bpf) using defected stub loaded resonator (dslr) is presented in this paper. the proposed dslr consists of two fundamental resonant modes and some resonant characteristics have been investigated by em software of ansoft hfss. then,based on two coupled dslrs,a dual-band response bpf that operates at 2.4 ghz and 3.5 ghz is designed and implemented for wlan and wimax application. the first passband is constructed by two lower frequencies of the coupled dslrs and the second passband is produced by two higher ones; the coupling scheme of them is also given. finally,the dual-band bpf is fabricated and measured; a good agreement between simulation and measurement is obtained,which verifies the validity of the design methodology. © 2014 dechang huang and zhaodi huang.
