Abstract
Several active bandpass filters for 1.8 and 5.5 GHz have been developed with the coplanar line technique using negative resistance circuits. For example, a first-order active bandpass filter at 5.5 GHz and two second-order bandpass filters at 1.8 GHz are presented, where one of the 1.8 GHz filters is a fixed center frequency filter and the other a tunable one. These 1.8 GHz filters have a 3 dB bandwidth of 110 MHz. The tuning range of the center frequency is 200 MHz
