| Sumario: | A simple strategy is proposed to design differential-mode bandpass filters with good common-mode (CM) rejection using simple resonators. Specifically, the CM rejection is enhanced by using conventional open-loop resonators as well as folded stepped-impedance resonators without the addition of printed or lumped elements along the symmetry plane of the filter or the use of defected ground solutions. The novelty of the present proposal is that a good CM rejection is achieved by the use of magnetic coupling instead of the more commonly employed electrical coupling. Magnetic coupling inherently yields poorer CM transmission as requested by good differential filters. The resonators, due to their geometrical simplicity, can easily be cascaded to implement high-order filters. The use of simple geometries also simplifies the design methodology and makes final tuning based on electromagnetic simulation simpler or unnecessary. |
