Short description In 2002, the Federal Commutations Commission (FCC) authorized the unlicensed use of ultra-wideband (UWB) spectrum for popular applications in high-speed and high-capacity wireless communications. This book describes the design of ultra-wideband bandpass filters based on the new concept of a multi-mode resonator. It investigates the degree to which a resonator is able to utilize its multiple resonant modes to realize a desired wide passband. With complete design procedures and tabulated design parameters, this reference will be useful for scientists and engineers concerned with the design of these devices and systems.
