A compact, band‐pass filter utilizing multi‐element resonators, structured from sections of distributed transmission lines, is presented. A band‐pass filter design procedure is established that emphasizes CAD techniques to characterize the individual resonators and to determine the resonator coupling values required for a specified pass‐band response. Detailed band‐pass filter design examples are illustrated and simulation results are employed to validate the design procedure. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
