An original topology of dual-band filter with transmission zeros
An original topology of dual-band filter with transmission zeros
Résumé
This paper reports on a new topology of high-performance dual-band filters. This topology is derived from the Dual Behavior Resonator (DBR) filter. The resulting resonator is directly dual-band. It allows the control of two bandpasses separated by a transmission zero to ensure a high rejection level between them. Moreover, two other transmission zeros are located on either side of the two bandpasses. The possibilities offered by this structure are discussed and measurements are presented to validate the method.
