In this article, a second‐order dual‐band bandpass filters (BPF) operating at 1.8 GHz GSM and 5.2 GHz WLAN is first proposed by using asymmetrical stub‐loaded resonators (SLRs). Then, a set of half‐wavelength resonators (HWRs) are embedded into asymmetrical SLRs to produce a passband at 3.5 GHz, and the other set of HWRs are coupled with high‐impedance parallel coupling microstrip lines to generate a passband at 6.8 GHz, so that a second quad‐band BPF is successfully designed. The fabricated dual‐band BPF and quad‐band BPF have compact sizes of 0.052λ g × 0.17λ g and 0.054λ g × 0.195λ g , respectively. In addition, high band‐to‐band isolation, good in‐band return loss, and wide stopband can be also observed. Good agreement is shown between the simulated and measured results. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 57:997–1003, 2015
