A coplanar waveguide bandwidth-tunable lowpass filter with broadband rejection

Broadband Coplanar Waveguide - Fed Wide - Slot Antenna

A large bandwidth wide-slot antenna, fed by coplanar waveguide (CPW), is proposed. Experimental investigations and detailed simulations are conducted to understand its behavior and to optimize for broadband operation. The impedance bandwidth, determined by 10-dB return loss of the proposed slot antenna using both measurement and simulation, is about 131% (2.8 to 14GHz). In addition to be small ...

Metamaterial composite bandpass filter with an ultra-broadband rejection bandwidth of up to 240 terahertz

A Miniaturized Tunable Bandpass Filter with Constant Fractional Bandwidth

This paper presents a miniaturized tunable bandpass filter, consisting of two coaxial dielectric resonators and a pair of parallel-coupled lines. A coaxial dielectric resonators and a microstrip line form a new step-impedance resonator (SIR), which is different from a conventional SIR. Varactor diodes are connected to SIRs to tune the center frequency. The gap between parallel-coupled lines con...

A Coplanar Waveguide Fed Hexagonal Shape Ultra Wide Band Antenna with WiMAX and WLAN Band Rejection

In this paper, a coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed hexagonal shape planar antenna has been considered for ultra-wide band (UWB). This antenna is then modified to obtain dual band rejection. The Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and Wireless Microwave Access (WiMAX) band rejections are realized by symmetrically incorporating a pair of L-shape slots within the ground plane as well as a couple of I-sh...
