A stepped impedance dual mode resonator is used, resulting in a much more compact size, than the conventional dual mode ring resonator that has an electrical length of 360°. The proposed prototype is able to achieve high stop band attenuation even with low Q factor values. Moreover, for the short electrical length of this filter, the first spurious resonance occurs at 4.7 times the fundamental resonance frequency. Therefore, the proposed technique selectively removes only the fundamental resonance frequency when such a resonator is implemented. A theoretical analysis, along with an experimental prototype is proposed in order to demonstrate the feasibility of these proposed networks. date: 2012 publisher: Electromagnetics Academy official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84868023566&doi=10.2528%2fPIERC12091602&partnerID=40&md5=ab53675e04fe9cf0f48120601a77f9c2 id_number: 10.2528/PIERC12091602 full_text_status: none publication: Progress In Electromagnetics Research C volume: 33 pagerange: 229-241 refereed: TRUE issn: 19378718 citation: Bakhit, A.A. and Wong, P.W.
