The paper is dedicated on the improving of the frequency response of FBAR filters by replacement some of the single FBARs with two parallel connected resonators. The method is applied for the basic lattice filter architecture and its modification with twice less number of FBARs. The conditions, which must satisfy the resonator parameters, are derived by theoretical considerations and computer simulations.
