Abstract :
A base-station bandpass filter using compact stepped combline resonators is presented. The bandpass filter consists of 4 resonators, has a center-frequency of 2.0175 GHz, a bandwidth of 15 MHz and cross-coupling by a cascaded quadruplet for improved blocking performance. The combline resonators have different size. Therefore, different temperature compensation arrangements need to be applied to guarantee stable performance in the temperature range from -40deg C to 85deg C. The layout will be discussed. A novel cross coupling assembly is introduced. Furthermore, measurement results are shown.
