The fast-growing market in wireless communications has led to the development of multi-standard mobile terminals. In this paper, a frequency-tunable active RC bandpass filter for multi-standards wireless communication system is designed using an active inductor. The conventional bandpass filter design methods employ the high order filter or high quality factor Q to improve the stopband attenuation characteristics and frequency selectivity of the passband. The proposed bandpass filter based on the high Q active inductor has an improved frequency characteristics. The center frequency and gain of the designed bandpass filter is tuned by employing the tuning circuit. We have performed the simulation using TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ process parameter to analyze the characteristics of the designed active RC bandpass filter. The bandpass filter with Q=20.5 has 90MHz half power bandwidth at the center frequency of 1.86GHz. Moreover, the center frequency of the proposed bandpass filter can be tuned between 1.86~2.38GHz for the multi-standards wireless communication system using the capacitor of the tuning circuit.

In this paper, a 2 stage 6-pole bandpass filter(BPF) is designed and implemented by using triple-mode cavity for satellite payload system. The BPF has a 100MHz bandwidth at the center frequency of 14.5GHz(Ku-band) and the response of the filter is the Chebyshev function. The cavity filter uses two orthogonal $TM_{113}$ modes and one $TM_{012}$ mode. The coupling between the adjacent cavityes(intercavity coupling) results in a Chebyshev response and is accomplished by only H-filed component of If modes. The size and location of intercavity slot is determined by the coupling equation from E-and H-field of TE and TM resonant modes in circular cavity. The 2-stage 6-pole triple-mode cavity BPF has the insertion loss of 2.4dB and the reflection loss of 15dB in the passband. The triple-mode BPF proposed in this thesis can be used as channel filters for satellite payload system and can minimize filter assembly in general wireless communication system.

In this paper, we proposed a novel compact microstrip lowpass filter with an ultra-wide stopband and a sharp cutoff frequency response. To improve the cutoff response of the conventional filter, the coupling effect between two open stubs is used. The slot on the ground with conventional shunt open stubs plays an important role of increasing the stopband at a high frequency. The combination of these structures gives the filter the characteristics of an ultra-wide stopband with a prominent cutoff sharpness. The fabricated microstrip lowpass filter with the size of 19.2 mm $\times$ 14.9 mm has -3 dB cutoff frequency at 1.1 GHz and -20 dB stopband from 1.5 GHz to over 30 GHz. The insertion loss is less than -0.15 dB in the passband.

In this paper, the parallel coupled line(PCL) band-pass filter satisfying IEEE 802.11a (a:$5.15{\sim}5.25$, b:$5.25{\sim}5.35$, c:$5.725{\sim}5.875$ [GHz]) has been designed for 5[GHz]band W-Lan RX-System applications. The designed PCL Band-Pass filter is of advantage to make a design formula that is small, light and approximate accuracy. It choose a microstrip plane figure because it is possible that a multiplicity of resonator was designed. It was shown that bandwidth was 14% from 5.15GHz to 5.92GHz at the -3dB designed filter. As a result, it is enough to use the designed filter at W-LAN RX-system of the 5GHz band.

A 2 stage 6-pole bandpass filter(BPF) is designed and implemented by using triple-mode cavity for satellite payload system. The BPF has an 100 MHz bandwidth at the center frequency of 14.5 GHz, Ku-band. The cavity filter uses two orthogonal $TE_{113}$ modes and one $TM_{012}$ mode. The intercavity coupling between the adjacent cavities results in a Chebyshev response and is accomplished by H-field component of TE modes. The size and location of intercavity slot are determined by the coupling equation from H-field of TE resonant modes in circular cavity. The measured filter response agrees well with the theoretical data.

In this thesis, a BPF(band-pass filter) at the center frequency of 2.14GHz, and bandwidth of 20MHz is designed and implemented using high Q dielectric resonators with ${\varepsilon}_r=38$. The DR(dielectric resonator) is resonated by $TE_{01{\delta}}$-mode and it has a hole in the center of DR. The BPF consists of 6-poles dielectric resonators and the characteristic of elliptic function is obtained by non-adjacent coupling. It has the average insertion loss of 0.97dB and the return loss over 25dB in its passband. In this thesis, the frequency selectivity is more improved by the coupling characteristics between non-adjacent resonators than that of dielectric resonator filters with a Chebyshev response.

In this paper, X/Ku band waveguide diplexers with H-plane T-junction for satellite communication systems is proposed and its characteristics is cinfirmed. Two frequency bands such as X(7.25 ~ 8.4 GHz) and Ku(12.25 ~ 14.5 GHz) can be separated by the proposed waveguide diplexers. A diplexers is normally including low pass filter, high pass filter and junction waveguide. To simplify the structure of the proposed diplexers, the proposed waveguide diplexers is using impedance matching technique on H-plane of the high pass filter without low pass filter. To use vertical and horizontal polarization, the proposed diplexers with orthomode transducer(OMT) characteristics is also designed. Therefore, it is confirmed that the proposed waveguide diplexers can be used as dual-band and dual-polarization diplexers for satellite communication feed systems.
