Design of Compact Stop-band Extended Microstrip Low-pass Filters by Employing Mutual- Coupled Square-shaped Defected Ground Structures

چکیده
A new technique to reduce the size, improve the rejection in the stop-band of a low-pass filter using modified defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed. An equivalent circuit model is used to study the DGS characteristics. The parameters are extracted by using a simple circuit analysis method. Several comparisons between the EMsimulations and the circuit simulations of the new structure are demonstrated to show the validity of the proposed equivalent circuit model. We demonstrated that the filter can provide a sharp transition domain and a wide rejection in stop-band. To further verify the new technique, a filter employing the new deformed DGS is fabricated and measured. The agreement between the simulation and the measured results confirms the effectiveness of the proposed concept. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract—A novel miniaturized dual-band bandstop filter (DBBSF) is proposed by using the T-shaped defected microstrip structures (DMSs) and the U-shaped defected ground structures (DGSs) in this paper. The layout of the dual-band bandstop resonator (DBBSR) is presented at first. The dual stopbands of the DBBSR can be separately controlled since the mutual coupling of the defected structures is ...
