In this paper, a miniaturized cavity filter with wide-stopband and wide-passband is proposed. Because of the bended stub-loaded resonator (BSLR), the proposed cavity filter successfully excites three TEM modes, namely TEM-I, TEM-II and TEM-III. The low-frequency transmission zero (LFTZ) is generated by the lateral probe, and the high-frequency transmission zero (HFTZ) is generated by the lateral stub. The lateral metal cylinder can concentrate the electric field of the stray mode, leading to a high suppression level. The asymmetric vertical arrangement of the probes can suppress the fundamental TE101 mode and several high-order modes. Therefore, a stopband with a bandwidth of 2.02 times the center frequency is formed. The proposed cavity filter has a bandwidth of 42% and an electrical size of 0.26λg×0.25λg×0.22λg. It has several advantages applied to the 5G communication system.
