The use of singlets, cascaded singlets, and doublets in a coaxial substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology is proposed in this paper, with the aim of implementing low-loss filters with very compact size and highly selective symmetric, asymmetric as well as dual-band responses. Singlets based on coaxial SIW resonator structures with source-load coupling are presented and studied. Then, different filter examples based on N cascaded singlets are designed, fabricated, and measured at 7.5 GHz, with up to N transmission zeros that can be easily located below and above the passband. Moreover, the application of doublets based on a dual-mode coaxial SIW resonator with source-load coupling for achieving extremely compact dual-band filters is presented, and two examples with different bandwidth configuration for each channel are designed, demonstrating the flexibility of the proposed coaxial SIW structure. The obtained experimental results of the differently implemented filters show a good agreement with simulations, thus confirming the interesting potential application of these structures for the design of very compact devices with advanced filtering responses.
