Electrically coupled MEMS bandpass filters Part I: With coupling element

This paper, the first of the two parts, presents coupling techniques for implementation of high order narrow-bandwidth bandpass filters from micromechanical resonators using electrical coupling elements. Active and passive coupling elements are used in this work to implement high order resonant systems from individual MEMS resonators. The concept of passive coupling of resonators using capacito...

Miniaturization of superconducting coplanar waveguide bandpass filters by cross coupling

For more size reduction of the high temperature superconducting coplanar waveguide (CPW) bandpass filter (BPF), we introduce the design method of the meanderline CPW quarter-wavelength resonator BPF. The exact admittanceand susceptance-inverters are calculated by using the 2.5-dimensional electromagnetic field simulator. The prototype YBCO miniaturized BPF (center frequency =10GHz, n=3, band wi...

Electrically coupled MEMS bandpass filters Part II. Without coupling element

This paper, the second of two parts, introduces electrostatic coupling of micromechanical resonators for implementation of high-order narrow-bandwidth bandpass filters. The concept of electrostatic coupling of closely spaced microresonators and its electromechanical modeling is presented. Electrostatic coupling of resonators does not require any distinct physical coupling elements. The electros...

A Compact Wide Bandpass Filter based on Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) Structure

In this pare, a wideband three-order bandpass filter (BPF) is proposed. The proposed wideband filter is designed using the substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structure by loading T-shape slots. A BPF with two resonators is formed by etching T-shape slots with different size on the top metal plane of the SIW structure. The filter is investigated with the theory of coupled resonator circuits.
