Investigation of external quality factor and coupling coefficient for a novel SIR based microstrip tri-band bandpass filter

In this article, a new method is developed to design a three-band miniaturized bandpass filter (BPF) that uses two asymmetrically coupled resonators with one step discontinuity and open-circuited uniform impedance resonator (UIR) to achieve Global Interoperability with Microwave Access (WiMAX) and R...
