For traditional mi- constitutive resonators with the same fundamental frequency, but crostrip half-wavelength resonator bandpass filters, due to their staggered higher order resonant frequencies. The design concept is demonstrated by a four-pole parallel-coupled Chebyshev bandpass unequal even- and odd-mode phase velocity, the first spurious filter and a compact four-pole cross-coupled elliptic-type bandpass passband is centered at twice the midband frequency, the second filter. Each filter is composed of four different stepped-impedance spurious passband at triple the midband frequency, and so on. resonators (SIRs) for which a general design guideline has been Poor out-of-band response may happen at each higher order res- provided in order to have the same fundamental frequency and different spurious frequencies by proper adjusting the impedance onant frequency of the resonators. and length ratios of the SIR.
