Abstract
With the development of wireless communication technology, radiofrequency (RF) circuits and integrated circuits are becoming more complex and packing more functionality and signals into an ever closer space, with a high level of electromagnetic interaction between circuit nodes and interference/crosstalk from substrate coupling and free space [1]. Balanced/differential circuit technology has become more important in modern communication systems because of good commonmode rejection that leads to relatively high immunity to environmental noise when compared with the single-ended technology [1]-[3], as shown in Figure 1(a) and (b). For balanced circuits, the differential mode should have excellent out-of-band rejection and high selectivity for the desired frequency band, while the common mode should be suppressed over a wider frequency band. In the past few years, many microstrip balanced filters for single band and dual band with common-mode suppression have been realized [4]-[10], with different balanced networks, balanced driven antennas, balanced amplifiers, and mixers [11]-[18].
