This paper presents corrugated coupled lines for miniaturized fixed and tunable microstrip bandpass filters. The novel approach uses microstrip corrugated coupled-line concept to synthesize a coupling coefficient, which maintains a nearly constant absolute bandwidth across the tuning range. A miniaturized two-pole varactor tuned filter is demonstrated with a frequency coverage of 1.32-1.89 GHz and an insertion loss < 3 dB with a constant 1-dB bandwidth of 70 ± 4 MHz across the tuning range. In addition, a three-pole comb-line 4.7% fixed filter at 1.94 GHz shows a 3:1 resonator spacing reduction over the conventional approach with an insertion loss of only 1.1 dB. This technique will allow the design of miniaturized small bandwidth fixed and tunable microstrip filters.
