In this paper, Characteristics responded to frequency of a band-pass filter with admittance inverters(J-inverters) is considered. As a result, it is confirmed that attenuation characteristics of upper and lower frequency is asymmetric. And a modified circuit and design formulas are proposed to improve the asymmetric attenuation characteristics. By confirming the simulated and measured results that are got from designed and made a experiment on the band-pass filter with the proposed circuit and formulas for design, we confirm that the asymmetric attenuation characteristics of the band-pass filter are improved without any optimization or iterative design procedures and additional calculation efforts.

This paper proposes a design of a dual-band band-pass filter that integrates a λg/2 open SIR structure, a transmission line, and a fork-type structure with symmetric and asymmetric open stubs. To obtain the dual-band effect, the proposed filter uses the SIR structure and adjusts the impedance ratio of the SIR structure. Therefore, the position of the harmonics of the filter is shifted through the adjustment of the impedance ratio, and this can obtain a double-band effect. In order to obtain the dual-band characteristics, the dual-band effect is obtained by inserting a open stub between the SIR structures with the SIR structure divided in half. In addition, the second frequency response is obtained by adjusting the length of the open symmetrical stub in the fork-shaped structure. The asymmetrical open stub in the fork form achieves optimum bandwidth by adjusting the length. Therefore, the first center frequency of the proposed band-pass filter is 5.896 GHz and the bandwidth is 13.6 %. At this time, the measurement results are 0.13 dB and 33.6 dB. The second center frequency is 5.906 GHz and the bandwidth is 13.6 %. At this time, the measurement results are 0.15 dB and 19.8 dB. The reason is that when the impedance ratio (Δ) is higher than 1, the position of the harmonic is shifted to a lower frequency band. However, if the impedance ratio (Δ) is lowered by one step, the position of harmonics will move to a higher frequency band. The function of the filter designed using these characteristics can be obtained from the measurement result. The proposed band-pass filter has no coupling loss and no via energy concentration loss because there is no coupling structure of input/output and no via hole. Therefore, system integration is possible due to its excellent performance, and it is expected that dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) system applications used in traffic communication systems will be possible.

A very small size 2.4 GHz ISM band BPF(Band Pass Filter) is realized using LTCC Multi-layer technology. Proposed design method enables to achieve BPF size $2.0\times1.2\times0.8mm^3$. A $lambda/4$ resonator with shunt-to-ground loaded capacitor is used to shorten resonator length, achieving higher quality factor. Also this resonator enables BPF to improve out-of-band rejection. Coupling coefficients between coupled strip-line resonators and external quality factor (Qe) of a resonator are derived and applied to the filter design. The measured results show good agreement with simulated data.

In this paper, two new circuit structures for European and U.S. ultra-wide band(UWB) bandpass filters(BPFs) with sharp roll-off characteristics are introduced. We show first that the ultra-wide bandpass property is obtained from a $\lambda$/4 open T resonator with a capacitively coupled $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line, which provides two attenuation poles at lower and upper cutoff frequencies. Then, two identical capacitively coupled input/output lines, which can be $\lambda$/4-length open ends or $\lambda$/2-length short ends, with the T-resonator, are adopted to suppress lower and higher frequency components outside of the pass band. There is coupling between the input and output lines providing two additional transmission zeros in the lower and upper transition bands of the filter. Since the coupling between the T-resonator with the $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line and the input/output lines limits the bandwidth of the filter to the European UWB band, both the $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line and the input/output lines are inserted between the two stacked T-resonators for the U.S. UWB band. The filter structures are simulated with ADS and HFSS and realized with low-temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) green tape which has the dielectric constant of 7.8. Measurement results agree well with HFSS simulation results.

The fast Fourier transform (FFT) is a good method to estimate spectral density, but the frequency resolution is limited to the sampling window, and thus the precise characteristics of the spectral density for short signals are not clear. To solve the limitation, a multiple band-pass filter was introduced to estimate the precise time course of the spectral density for flash visual evoked potentials (VEPs). Signals were recorded during -200 and 600 ms using balanced noncephalic electrodes, and sampled at 1 K Hz in 12 bits. With 1 Hz and 10 ms resolutions, spectral density was estimated between 10 and 100 Hz. Background powers at the alpha-and beta-bands were high over the posterior scalp, and powers around 200ms were evoked at the same bands over the same region, corresponding to P110 and N165 of VEPs. normalized's spectral density showed evoked powers around 200 ms and suppressed powers following the evoked powers over the posterior scalp. The evoked powers above the 20Hz band were not statistically significant. However, the gamma band was significantly evoked intra-individually; details in the gamma bands were varied among the subjects. Details of spectral density were complicated even for a simple task such as watching flashes; both synchronization and desynchronization occurred with different distributions and different time courses.

In this paper, the design and the fabrication of dual bandpass filter using heterogeneous resonators is presented. Each resonator would not have an effect on each resonant frequency. Two types of resonators are designed to have different fundamental resonant frequencies, one for the lower passband and the other for the upper passband. In the lower band, half and quarter wavelength resonators were used. In the upper band, a dual-mode resonator was used for adjusting bandwidth. In the upper pass band frequency, resonators of lower passband acts as the input and output. For WLAN, Proposed filters with different second passband frequencies at 2.45/5.2 GHz and 2.45/5.8 GHz are designed and fabricated.

This paper presents a triple-mode dielectric resonator far low loss and simple structure filter design. The BPF(Band Pass Filter) was designed using HFSS simulation results an4 fabricated using proposed resonators. The filter (3-stage BPF) has an insertion loss of about 0.9 dB at the center frequency of 1.93 GHz and a 3 dB bandwidth of about 25 MHz. If more complex characteristic is required, slot coupling between resonators can be used. Especially, the proposed BPF can be applied to the next generation mobile communication IMT-2000 system.

This paper describes the realization of the Ka-band group-delay equalized filter desisted with the help of a new hybrid method of Simulated Annealing(SA) and Conjugate Gradient(CG), to be employed by the multi-channel Input Multiplexer for a satellite use, each channel of which comprises a channel filter and a group-delay equalizer. The SA and CG find circuit parameters of an 8th order elliptic function filter and a 2-pole equalizer, respectively. Measurement results demonstrate that the performances of the designed component meet the specifications, and validate the design methods.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated a dual-band bandpass filter which can control upper and lower bandwidth using the transformed E-shaped dual-mode resonator. The filter is made the coupling between even-mode not to affect odd-mode resonant frequency by the transformed resonator to control upper bandwidth effectively. The cross coupling between input and output feed lines was employed to improve stopband characteristic. The bandpass filter has been designed to indicate the same bandwidth at center frequency 2 GHz and 3 GHz to show to control bandwidth.

In this paper, the novel method is proposed to realize the parallel coupled line band pass filter using defected ground structure(DGS) inverter. This method provides simple solution which easily resolves the limit of line width happened due to high impedance on the occasion of designing filter composed of line inverter. On the basis of the proposed method and conventional method, the band pass filters haying 13.3% fractional bandwidth were designed and implemented. The measured data of two filters show usually good agreement with each other, but on the other hand the length of proposed filter become shorten about 15mm and the width of inverter line was expanded two times or more in comparison with conventional filter.
