In this paper, the reduced size in horizontal sizes of the narrow band pass filter (BPF) with λg/4 short stub using S shaped folded coupling structure is presented. This BPF with narrow bandwidth show flexible bandwidth with variation of the position of the stubs using the Qe(external quality factor) without changing the impedance value. On the other hand, by replacing the horizontal quarter-wavelength transmission lines with the equivalent S shaped coupled line, the BPF with reduced the size of horizontal can be realized. The proposed BPF shows the insertion loss of 1.46 dB and the return loss of 16.5 dB with bandwidth of 3.4 % at the center frequency of 5.8 GHz, respectively.

In this paper, the broadband cross monopole antenna is presented and the radiation characteristics are investigated. The presented broadband cross monopole antenna is composed of the cross monopole element and the folded short stub, which has a excellent band characteristics more than the existing cross monopole antenna. To conform the broadband characteristics of the presented antenna, the experimental antenna is designed, fabricated, and its radiation characteristics are measured in $1.75\sim2.655\;GHz$. It is shown that the designed antenna has the nondirectional pattern in the horizontal plane, the directional pattern in the vertical plane, VSWR less than 1.5, and gain in $2.17\sim4.87\;dBi$. From these results, the presented antenna is conformed as a broadband indoor antenna which can be used for PCS, WCDMA, Wibro, and satellite DMB band.

A miniaturized wideband band-pass filter with a 3-dB fractional bandwidth of 109.3% (1.53 GHz to 5.22 GHz), high out-of-band attenuation greater than 25 dB, and wide upper stopband up to 14 GHz is proposed. The design consists of a dual-composite right/left handed resonator, embedded open-circuited stub, and a pair of quarter-wavelength short-circuited stubs. These elements are coupled in the near distance to form a miniature filter with a compact occupied area of 0.21 λ_g×0.19 λ_g (≈ 0.013 cm²). The optimized filter has multitransmission poles in the passband, substantially improving the return loss and insertion loss characteristics. The behavior of the passband and stopband is verified against the results of a lumped element model and matrix analysis with a full-wave moment-based analysis and actual measurements. The results of this verification and a comparison with the performance of filters in other references indicate that the proposed filter is very efficient and applicable to compact microwave systems.
