AB  - The use of asymmetrical structures has been verified in the design BPF dual-band and multiband
responses. On the other hand, fractal geometry has been successfully applied to design compact BPFs. Based
on these concepts, a triple-band Minkowski fractal based BPF is presented in this study. The structure of the
proposed filter is composed of two different stub-loaded fractal-based resonators that are capacitively coupled
to a microstrip transmission line. The two resonators are with the same fractal iteration order but one of the
resonators is a closed variant of the other resonator. The open fractal SLR resonator will excite the dual-band
response while the close SLR resonator will produce its own resonant band. Each resonator can perform
individually and the resulting filter response is the combination of their responses. The current distribution
analyses at the surface of the filter at different frequencies are used to justify the resulting performance. The
dimensions of the proposed filter are found lower than those produced using other techniques in terms of the
design guided wavelengths.
