Abstract


This paper presents a balanced fifth-order Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) band-pass filter operating at 39 GHz. The filter uses the balanced nature of the SIW resonators and the odd-mode property of the TE102 mode. Five rectangular resonators have been used to develop a fifth-order band-pass filter and the couplings between them with the external quality factors have been determined. The filter yields a good response in the KA band of the electromagnetic spectrum. It has a smaller footprint and operates at a higher frequency range compared to other filters with the same technology. The Common-Mode (CM) signal has been effectively suppressed to more than -30 dBs throughout the considered range. The return loss of -30 dBs and an insertion loss of -4 dBs for the Differential-Mode (DM) operation are achieved at the operating frequency of 39 GHz. The half-mode operation of the filter has been also implemented and the results have proven to be satisfactory.
