A Miniaturized Dual-Band Diplexer Design with High Port Isolation for UHF/SHF Applications Using a Neural Network Model

In this paper, a compact dual-band diplexer is proposed using two interdigital filters. The proposed microstrip diplexer correctly works at 2.1 GHz and 5.1 GHz. In the proposed diplexer, two fifth-order bandpass interdigital filters are designed to pass the desired frequency bands. Applied interdigital filters with simple structures pass the 2.1 GHz and 5.1 GHz frequencies and suppress other frequency bands with high attenuation levels. The dimensions of the interdigital filter are obtained using the artificial neural network (ANN) model, constructed from the EM-simulation data. The desired filter and diplexer parameters, such as operating frequency, bandwidth, and insertion loss, can be obtained using the proposed ANN model. The insertion loss parameter of the proposed diplexer is 0.4 dB, and more than 40 dB output port isolation is obtained (for both operating frequencies). The main circuit has the small size of 28.5 mm × 23 mm (0.32 λg × 0.26 λg). The proposed diplexer, with the achieved desired parameters, is a good candidate for UHF/SHF applications.
