This article presents a quasi‐lumped bandpass filter with CPW‐microstrip ports. The structure serves as CPW‐microstrip transmission in addition to its filtering function. The filter was integrated with a microstrip patch antenna. To enable the filter design, the characteristic impedance of the slotted microstrip line and the coupling strength of microstrip to microstrip, CPW to CPW and microstrip to CPW transitions were calculated. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
