Abstract

In this paper, we present a compact triple-mode resonator. The resonator itself can provide three transmission poles and one transmission zero. The resonance condition of each mode is analyzed theoretically, and the transmission zero is generated by open stub. Using this proposed resonator, a compact three pole bandpass filter for 2.4 GHz WLAN application with one transmission zero is designed and fabricated. The fabricated triple-mode filter shows 3 dB bandwidth of 15.8 % with the center frequency 2.4 GHz and less then 1.17 dB in 2.4~2.5 GHz passband. The size of fabricated triple-mode filter including the feed lines is 15.9 mm${\times}$9.7 mm and very compact compared with previous reported triple-mode filter.

본 논문에서는 새로운 구조의 작은 크기의 삼중 모드 공진기를 제안한다. 제안된 구조는 소형화를 위해 반파장의 Stepped Impedance Resonaotr에 개방 스터브와 단락 스터브를 이용하였으며, 개방 스터브에 의해 자체적으로 하나의 전송 영점을 발생시킨다. 각각의 세 가지 공진 모드에서 발생하는 공진점을 이론적으로 해석하였다. 제안된 삼중 모드 공진기를 이용하여 세 개의 전송 극점과 하나의 전송 영점을 갖는 2.4 GHz WLAN에 적용 가능한 대역 통과 필터를 설계 및 제작하였다. 제작된 삼중 모드 필터는 중심 주파수 2.4 GHz에서 15.8 %의 3 dB 대역폭과 2.4~2.5 GHz 통과 대역 내에서 최대 1.17 dB 이하의 삽입 손실을 갖는다. 제작된 삼중 모드 공진기의 필터의 크기는 급전 선로를 포함하여 15.9 mm${\times}$9.7 mm로 기존의 삼중 모드 필터에 대비하여 매우 작은 크기를 갖는다.
