Notch Implemented Dual Behavior Resonator Filter and Diplexer at Ku-band

This article presents a dual behavior resonator (DBR)-based microstrip filter for the realization of a diplexer at Ku-band. The transmit – receive (Tx – Rx) filter topologies are designed at the required frequency and are cascaded using an optimized T-...
Figure 1 Basic components of a transceiver front end. Modern communication systems need new filters, diplexers and multiplexers to meet electrical performance, size and manufacturing cost requirements, which are difficult to achieve using classical topologies. Diplexers are widely used in communication systems for reducing mass and volume of the...
