Ultra-wideband transmission line bandpass filters with sharpened roll-off skirts by Quek, Alwyn Chiao Liang

“…The design consists of a ring resonator in the middle connected by interdigital coupled lines fed from both sides of the network. This ring resonator is studied to relocate its first four resonant modes within the 3.1 to 10.6 GHz passband, whereas placing the fifth resonant mode at the coupling transmission zero of the interdigital coupled lines that drive this MMR at both sides of the network. …”
