Planar single-/dual-band bandpass filters based on new perturbed multi-mode SIW circular cavity

Abstract

In this paper, new single- and dual-band bandpass filters are implemented based on the perturbed multi-mode substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) circular cavity. For the single-band filter, the TM${}_{010}$ mode, TM${}_{110A}$ mode, and TM${}_{210A}$ mode are simultaneously utilized to realize the triple-mode resonance response, of which both the bandwidth and central frequency can be flexibly adjusted by allocating the perturbation position properly. Meanwhile, for the dual-band operation, the TM${}_{010}$ mode, TM${}_{110A}$ mode, and TM${}_{210A}$ mode are arranged to realize the lower passband, whereas the TM${}_{210B}$ and TM${}_{020}$ modes are excited to generate the upper passband. The working principle of the filters' coupling topology is explained in detail. For concept verification, both the triple-mode single-band and multi-mode dual-band filters are designed, manufactured and measured, with the measurement results are separately in good agreement with the corresponding simulations.
