A new method is introduced for designing microstrip dual-mode bandpass filters by using different notch positions.By using this method
dual-mode bandpass filter with a pair of transmission zeros or with no transmission zeros can be realized.After analyzing the influence of the notch position to the dual modes in the resonator
the topology structure of the dual mode filter is established.Using full-wave EM software
two kinds of filters with center frequency of 2.05GHz and bandwidth of 100MHz are designed based on different notch positions.Both simulated and measured results are in good agreement.
