New multi‐standard wide band filters with compact sizes are designed for wireless communication devices. The proposed structures realize dual‐wideband and quad‐wideband characteristics by using a new skew‐symmetrical coupled pair of asymmetric stepped impedance resonators, combined with other structures. The first and second dual‐wideband filters realize fractional bandwidths (FBW) of 43.2%/31.9% at the central frequencies (CF) of 1.875/1.63 GHz, and second bandwidths of 580 MHz/1.75 GHz at CF of 5.52/4.46 GHz, respectively. The proposed quad‐band filter realizes its first/second/third/fourth pass bands at CF 2.13/5.25/7.685/9.31 GHz with FBW of 46.0%/11.4%/4.6% and 5.4%, respectively. The wide pass bands are attributed to the mutual coupling of the modified ASIR resonators and their bandwidths are controllable by tuning relative parameters while the wide stop band performance is optimized by the novel interdigital cross coupled line structure and parallel uncoupled microstrip line structure. Moreover, the quad band is generated by introducing the novel defected rectangle structure. These multi‐standard filters are simulated, fabricated and measured, and measured results agree well with both simulated results and theory predictions. The good in‐band and out‐of‐band performances, the miniaturized sizes and simple structures of the proposed filters make them very promising for applications in future multi‐standard wireless communication.
