Abstract
This paper presents the design of a compact narrow-band bandpass filter using the cylindrical dielectric resonator (CDR) coupled with a microstrip line. The TE11δ mode of the dielectric resonator is used to obtain the narrow passband performance while, spurious mode suppression can be improved by etching the slot on the ground plane of the filter due to mode separation with the desired mode. Presented narrow bandpass filter performances are: center frequency 6.15 GHz, fractional bandwidth 0.7 %, and insertion loss (IL) 0.16 dB. To validate the above concept a second order narrow-band bandpass filter is designed, fabricated and measured. There is good agreement between simulated and measured results.
