Analysis and design procedures for both symmetrical and non-symmetrical open-circuited interdigital multiple coupled microstrip line structures for applications as wide-band DC blocks/filters have been presented. The design equations, as is the case of other microstrip structures, are based on a simplified TEM model. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretically predicted ones.

A very compact narrowband high-temperature superconducting microstrip filter using multiple coupled line resonators is designed and fabricated to effectively use the limited space of the wafer. The fabricated 12 pole filter has a center frequency of 1.79 GHz and a 3dB bandwidth of 7.63 MHz(0.43% fractional bandwidth). The filter also shows sharp skirt characteristics of 71 dB/MHz and 41dB/MHz blow and above the passband, respectively, and has an insertion loss of less than 0.5dB and a return loss of more than 15dB in the passband.

The design of a new compact UWB bandpass filter is proposed, which has cascaded center-tapped microstrip composite right/left-handed transmission-line zeroth-order resonators (CRLH-TL ZORs). In an attempt to reduce the size, instead of the conventional half-wavelength resonators or periodic and multiple CRLH-TL cells, only one cell ZOR geometry is adopted as each resonator in the filter. Additionally, two center-tapped ZORs are coupled to increase the slope of the skirt. Besides, stepped impedance matching parts are placed in the paths to the input and output ports to enhance passband and stopband performances. The proposed filter is shown to have the overall size of $0.69{\lambda}_g{\times}0.70{\lambda}_g$, the insertion loss much less than 1 dB, and an acceptable return loss performance in the predicted and measured results.
