Abstract :
The design of compact multilayer coplanar line bandpass filters is presented. These very compact filters make use of the two sides of the substrate of the modified coplanar line. In addition, a transmission zero has been introduced to the filter response, either by extending the metalization under the ground planes, or by employing additional capacitive coupling between the different parts of the filter structure. A good agreement between the simulated and measured responses has been achieved
