This paper presents an electrical tunable bandpass filter based on tunable LC resonators loaded with semiconductor varactors. Magnetic dominated mixed coupling between the tunable resonators is utilized to compensate the bandwidth of the tunable filter. Cross coupling is created by using magnetic dominated mixed coupling between the resonators and source to load electrical coupling, and two transmission zeros are generated beside the passband. The tunable mechanism of the proposed filter is studied. The tunable filter is analyzed, designed, fabricated and measured. The measurement shows that the filter can be tuned from 70 MHz to 270 MHz with a fractional bandwidth from 27% to 21%.
