Abstract :
This paper presents a compact high isolation dual- band bandpass filter using dual mode resonators and lumped elements for wireless applications. Multiple Transmission Zeros(TZs) are created to improve the selectivity and isolation between two bands using inductive cross coupling. The symmetrical coupling mechanism is realized for both the bands to achieve isolation better than 33dB. The designed filter being very compact will be suitable for wireless applications. Measured results agree well with the simulation results.
