چکیده
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 passband, and the stopband bandwidth with the attenuation level better than −20 dB is extended from 1.8GHz up to 13.93GHz. So, a wide stopband is achieved. The proposed filter is designed, fabricated and measured, where there is a good agreement between the simulation and measurement results. The results show that a roll-off rate of 65.4 dB/GHz together with a relative stopband bandwidth of 154% with the suppression level of −20 dB is obtained while achieving a high figure of merit (FOM) of 23509.

A novel microstrip lowpass filter is proposed to achieve a very wide stopband and high selectivity as well as compact size. This filter utilizes a resonator with symmetric structure that consists of a transmission line, loaded with open stubs. Each stub ends with a defected taper and these tapers are coupled two by two to generate enhanced capacitances and increase the selectivity. Two units of...

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...
