Abstract

In this letter, a novel sext-band bandpass filter (BPF) using two split-type multiple-mode resonators is proposed. The filter is composed of two sets of resonators which are respectively designed to realize Filter 1 with two passbands and Filter 2 with quad passbands. Then the two BPFs are combined by parallel coupling feed lines for sext-band responses, and each of the six centre frequencies in the proposed sext-band BPF is able to be controlled due to the design freedom. To validate the design and analysis, a prototype filter has been fabricated with six passbands centered at 1.88/2.59/3.48/5.26/5.82/6.75 GHz. The measured result of the fabricated filter agrees well with the simulation, which shows that the proposed structure is a good candidate for sext-band BPF designs and validates the proposed design flow well.
