摘要

This letter presents a bandpass filter (BPF) based on a hybrid structure of quarter-mode substrate integrated waveguide (QMSIW) and coplanar waveguide (CPW). By incorporating two CPW resonators into two QMSIW resonators, the proposed filter obtains a high selectivity as the coupling between two CPW resonators is electric coupling, which helps to generate two transmission zeros. It also achieves compact layout as the embedded CPW resonators do not occupy extra area. In order to verify the design, a BPF with a center frequency of 8.7 GHz is fabricated and measured. The measured results show good agreement with the simulation results.
