A Compact UWB BPF with Sharp Roll-Off Using CPW to Microstrip Transition Structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this letter, a compact ultra-wideband (UWB) bandpass filter based on CPW-tomicrostrip transition structure is proposed. Compared with traditional UWB BPF using hybrid structures, the proposed filter has a more sharp selectivity due to a transmission zero located at the lower edge of the passband generated by the combined effect of both CPW-MS-CPW and interdigital coupling line (ICL). Moreover, to further improve its selectivity, the CPW open stubs (CPWOS) are introduced to produce two extra transmission zeros at high frequency. The measured results show that the proposed filter has some good characteristics such as sharp roll-off, compact size (0.54λg × 0.38λg) and a very wide fractional bandwidth of 130%, which is a significant improvement to what has been reported for UWB BPF with similar structures.
