Abstract :
Cross-coupled folded metal insert filters with asymmetric responses are introduced. The selectivity of these filters is further improved by exploiting the source-load coupling to generate up to n finite transmission zeros for a filter of order n. Two 4th order filters with 2 and 5 finite transmission zeros, respectively are presented to demonstrate the significantly improved response of these filters over their conventional counter part.
