This paper presents that the extra passband with two transmission zeros can be obtained by adding shunt open stubs to the asymmetric half-wavelength resonators structure. By using this method, a fourth or even higher passband with good selectivity and compact size can be obtained. Dual-band, tri-band and quad-band bandpass fllters are demonstrated by using this method. The measured bandwidth is 80/180MHz for the dual-band, 60/180/180MHz for the tri-band and 130/360/170/70MHz for the quad-band fllter, respectively. The measured insertion loss for the dual-band, tri-band and quad-band fllter is less than 2.7dB, 2.5dB and 2.9dB at the center frequency. All the simulated results and the measured results agree well.
