Abstract
A new balun-bandpass filter with a quasi-elliptic response for 60 GHz wireless communication systems is proposed. It is designed in the form of a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and fabricated with the standard low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology. Both simulated and experimental results are provided, which have good agreement. The results indicate that the proposed balun filter has a good balance performance with <;1.1 dB amplitude imbalance and better than 3.4° phase imbalance, compact size, as well as high selectivity.
