Abstract :
A new implementation technique of dual- and triple-band filters is presented in this paper. The filters are realized by utilizing a double-sided substrate with a common ground plane. The coupling between the non-adjacent resonators of the filters is realized through coupling slots in the common ground plane of the double-sided substrate. Several dual- and triple-band filters are fabricated and tested demonstrating the desired characteristics.
