Abstract :
A novel microwave dual-mode elliptic-function bandpass filter with one coupling gap structure is proposed. This filter has a 4.7% bandwidth at 1.805 GHz with 1.73 dB insertion loss. The filter provides less field perturbation of the ring resonator than conventional filters. Without the output coupling gap between the feed line and the ring resonator, a low insertion loss has been obtained. This compact, high performance filter is useful for mobile and personal communication systems
