In this paper, the reduced size of broad bandpass filter with parallel coupled line structure is presented. This proposed filter can control bandwidth of narrow to broadband by adjusting the coupling coefficient. The conventional filter is operated with a narrow band. If a higher bandwidth is desired than the conventional narrow bandwidth, it is hard to realize due to the coupling coefficient between feeding line and resonator. In this paper, to overcome this limitation, a proposed bandpass filter is designed with reduced size due to SIR (Stepped Impedance Resonator), U-shaped open stub with hair-pin and vertical-type structure than conventional one, and it has characteristics of adjusting bandwidth freely as per quantity of coupling coefficient. The proposed bandpass filter that, experimental results of insertion and return losses are 0.42 dB and 24.5 dB with bandwidth of 60 % at the center frequency of 5.8 GHz, respectively.

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.

In this paper, the design and the fabrication of dual-band bandpass filter using two dual-mode resonators is presented. Dual-mode resonator using a short stub is miniaturized by inter-digital capacitor and stepped impedance. Two dual mode resonators are designed to have different resonant frequencies, one for the lower passband and the other for the upper passband. Transmission zero is positioned at low or high rejection bands with a sharp skirt characteristic. Dual-band operation can be achieved using dual feeding structure. For WLAN, the proposed filter at 2.45/5.25 GHz is designed and fabricated. The size of the filter is as compact as 1$10.83\;mm{\times}5.3\;mm$.

We present a cost-effective dual polarization quadrature phase-shift coherent receiver module using a silica planar lightwave circuit (PLC) hybrid assembly. Two polarization beam splitters and two $90^{\circ}$ optical hybrids are monolithically integrated in one silica PLC chip with an index contrast of $2%-{\Delta}$. Two four-channel spot-size converter integrated waveguide-photodetector (PD) arrays are bonded on PD carriers for transverse-electric/transverse-magnetic polarization, and butt-coupled to a polished facet of the PLC using a simple chip-to-chip bonding method. Instead of a ceramic sub-mount, a low-cost printed circuit board is applied in the module. A stepped CuW block is used to dissipate the heat generated from trans-impedance amplifiers and to vertically align RF transmission lines. The fabricated coherent receiver shows a 3-dB bandwidth of 26 GHz and a common mode rejection ratio of 16 dB at 22 GHz for a local oscillator optical input. A bit error rate of $8.3{\times}10^{-11}$ is achieved at a 112-Gbps back-to-back transmission with off-line digital signal processing.

In this paper, a microstrip bandpass filter(BPF) with 3 dB bandwidth of more than 50 % at center frequency of 30 GHz was implemented. The implemented BPF is to be used as ASK(Amplitude Shift Keying) transmission and reception filters in IF band for THz transmitter and receiver capable of 10 Gb/s wireless data transmission. The microstrip BPF with ultra-wideband characteristics was implemented using a stepped-impedance lowpass filter(LPF) and a composite quarter-wave short stubs where the LPF is functioning as attenuating the upper stopband and quarter-wave short stubs is functioning as attenuating the lower stopband. The measured results are as follows; the insertion loss is 0.65 dB at 30 GHz, the stopband characteristics are -10 dB and -16 dB at 10 GHz and 50 GHz, respectively, and the passband flatness is ${\pm}0.5$ dB at 20~40 GHz.

A clear and efficient design method for a microstrip-to-waveguide inline transition, which is based on an analytical model, is presented. The transition consists of three parts: a microstrip-to-SIW transition, a dielectric-loaded waveguide with substrate-height, and a stepped-height waveguide. The shape of the transitional structure is formed for impedance matching. Two equivalent type0s of dielectric-loaded transitional structures are proposed. The design method is applicable to any size of the waveguide, but a design method of two Ka-band transitions is demonstrated. The proposed transitions, in a back-to-back configuration, have less than 1.2 dB insertion loss and more than 15 dB return loss from 29.8 GHz to 38.2 GHz.
