Abstract
A new design method is proposed for multistage combline band-pass filter made of strip line resonators. Grayzel transformation is used to separate the coupling of adjacent resonators and to decompose the filter into pairs of coupled resonators. After the design is finished, similar resonators of the same length but a little different width are equally spaced and accompanied by auxiliary capacitors, which has the simplest structure to fabricate using low-temperature cofired ceramics(LTCC).
