Abstract :
Using multilayer structures, very compact planar bandpass filters can be designed with improved stop-band characteristics taking full advantage of the additional degrees of freedom given by the arrangement. As examples, a suspended stripline filter with suppression of the first harmonic frequency and a finline filter with improved attenuation close to the pass-band are presented.<>
