Abstract
This paper presents a novel compact bandpass filter for 30 GHz millimeter-wave
applications in Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC). The proposed circuit consists
of two symmetrical coupled quarter-wavelength transmission-line resonators and two coupled
transmission-line feeding structures. Two feeding lines are designed as asymmetrical structures,
which are utilized not only to cause mismatch at the third harmonic frequency between the
resonator and feeding lines so that the third harmonic can be suppressed but also to provide
source-loaded to generate two transmission zeros near the passband, resulting in high selectivity.
To verify the proposed idea, an experiment filter has been implemented. High skirt selectivity
and wide stopband are observed in the results.
