Therefore, the research of RF front-end of user equipment technology becomes an important issue. The duplexer can allocate and utilize very limited spectrum resources, make signals able to be received and transmitted in the wireless communications, simultaneously. So it plays a very important role in microwave devices, particularly in front-end module. The performance and integration density of RF front-end are partly determined by the high-performance miniaturized duplexer. On the other hand, low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) materials have the characteristics of moderate dielectric constant, low loss within RF and microwave frequency, and easy three-dimensional integration with high fabrication precision. More attention should be paid to the development of front-end modules and duplexers based on LTCC technologies. For this purpose, the duplexers using a standard LTCC technology for GSM/DCS and UMTS applications are studied in this thesis. The procedures for analysis and design are given in detail. The size of the proposed duplexers is reduced significantly, and superior frequency selectivity is achieved. The proposed method for duplexer design is then validated by good agreements obtained between the simulated and measured results. The contents and main academic contribution of this thesis are as follows: Chapter I introduces the research background of this thesis. Several typical filter prototypes and their design methods are introduced in Chapter II. A novel LTCC duplexer is designed for GSM/DCS application in Chapter III. The
