            Abstract : 
Techniques are presented for obtaining an optimum filter response for narrow-band requirements of a single passband and a single stopband. For certain transformed equiripple passband responses, including Chebyshev and elliptic function responses and a new “double n/2 poles” response, the minimum number of resonators can be easily determined, resulting in reduced size and weight relative to more conventional frequency-symmetric bandpass or bandstop filters
