ABSTRACT Distributed coupling technique and two pairs of stepped‐impedance resonators are used to realize a four‐channel diplexer. Due to the low loading effect of distributed coupling technique, the proposed circuit can design many channels without the use of complicated matching network. Each pairs of resonators is designed for a dual‐band performance achieving a compact size. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 58:166–170, 2016
