We have designed dual-band bandpass filters using different methods and resonators, including using TE01δ mode quarter cylindrical dielectric resonators [1], coaxial stepped impedance resonators [2], and non-uniform pitch helical resonators [3]. These multi-band bandpass filters are compact compared to using several single-band bandpass filters. They have relatively large power handling capability so that they are applicable for transceivers of LTE/5G micro/pico-cell base stations.
