MINIATURIZED MICROSTRIP LOWPASS FILTER WITH ULTRA-WIDE STOPBAND PERFORMANCE USING TRAPEZOID PATCH RESONATORS

Compact Microstrip Lowpass Filter With Ultra-Wide Stopband Using Patch Resonators and Open Stubs

A compact microstrip lowpass filter with ultra-wide stopband characteristics and high suppression level is presented. To achieve compact size and wide stopband suppression along with improved impedance matching, symmetrically loaded resonant patches, open stubs and stair shaped high impedance stub are introduced in the filter. The measurement results show good agreement with the simulations. Th...

Compact Microstrip Lowpass Filter with Wide Stopband and High Attenuation

A compact microstrip lowpass filter using radial stub resonators is developed. This filter is composed of two radial stub resonators that are asymmetrically connected to each other by a stepped impedance structure. This structure results in a very high rejection and wide stopband. The proposed filter with a 3 dB cutoff frequency of 2.07 GHz has been designed, fabricated and measured. Measuremen...

Compact Microstrip Lowpass Filter with Sharp Roll-off and Wide Stopband Using Semicircle Ended Stub Resonator

In this paper, a semicircle ended stub resonator, cascaded to a modified radial patch to design a compact lowpass filter with sharp roll-off and wide stopband is proposed. This filter has 3 dB cutoff frequency at 1.54 GHz. The transition band is only 0.26GHz from 1.54 GHz to 1.8 GHz with corresponding attenuation levels of −3 dB and −20 dB respectively. Maximum insertion loss is 0.1 dB in the p...

Highly Selective Lowpass Filter with Wide Stopband in Suspended Stripline Technology for Millimeter-wave Diplexer Applications

This paper presents a low loss and high selective lowpass filter which is implemented using suspended stripline (SSL) technology. The proposed structure is comprised of a 13th order generalized Chebyshev lowpass filter which enjoys integrated waveguide-to-SSL transitions. This filter is designed and fabricated to be used as lowpass channel of a U-band diplexer employed in frontend of a U-band d...
