The coplanar waveguide bandpass filter using folded-line stepped-impedance resonators(SIRs) is proposed. The folded-line SIR has about λ/8 length using the short-circuited end on coplanar waveguide. It make that the bandpass filter has the half size in comparison with general λ/4 SIR filter. In this paper, we derive the equivalent circuit and design the bandpass filter by using that. We design and fabricate the bandpass filter which has 5 GHz center frequency and 3 % fractional bandwidth. The measurement results fur 4-pole folded SIR bandpass filter agreed well with full-wave simulation and equivalent circuit results. The fabricated bandpass filter has a good spurious characteristic, which the harmonic frequency appeared at 2.5f$\_$0/). The proposed folded-line SIR bandpass filter are applicable for MMIC and High-Tc superconducting filters. bandwidth.

In this paper, we introduce the SIR typed bandpass filters in CPW structures for shifting spurious harmonic frequency into higher frequency band. And we proposed the effective feed structures for suppressing spurious frequency in the SIR typed CPW bandpass filters. The designed folded feed structures have lowpass filtering characteristic. They are very effective feed types in the CPW bandpass filters for suppressing harmonics. The measured results of the CPW bandpass filter with folded feed line shows that it has suppressed and wide out-of-band up to 5.8fo.

In this paper, we have proposed the folded feed structure for the spurious harmonic suppression and we have designed the SIR CPW bandpass filter using this feed structure. The characteristic of the proposed feed structure was similar to that of the lowpass filter has wide stopband region and this can be used usefully to the spurious harmonic suppression of the bandpass filter. From the simulation and the measurement result, SIR CPW bandpass filter with folded feed structure has good harmonic suppression characteristics up to 5.8 f$\sub$0/ with -20 dB suppression level.
