A design method for an ultra-wideband bandpass filter (BPF) with four coupled lines has been developed. For demonstration purposes, 50Ω-matched self-complementary antennas integrated with the ultra-wideband, differential-mode BPF with four coupled lines, a notch filter, and a low-pass filter (LPF) were prepared and tested. An optimized structure for a single-stage, broadside-coupled and edge-co...

An ultra-wide band band-pass filter using novel spiral stub-loaded triple-mode resonator (SSLTMR) is presented. New spiral stub loaded resonator is analyzed with odd and even modes analysis for this class of BPF, achieving higher band wide and size reduction. In order to have a good response characterized, two (SSL-TMRs) and two quarter wavelength digital coupled lines are used. This new design...

In this paper, a novel compact band pass filter (BPF) is proposed for Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. The proposed BPF configuration is composed of a low pass filter (LPF) section formed by the coupled line transformer connected with a radial stub and two short circuited stubs embedded within the 50Ω microstrip line connecting the input/output (I/O) port of LPF. The lumped equivalent...

In this paper, a new Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Band-Pass Filter (BPF) for UWB applications is presented. The proposed filter is based on ring resonator with inter-digital coupling at both sides. The inter-digital coupling is used to providing strong coupling and to introduce capacitance effect to achieve at pass-band response. To achieve band rejection characteristics L-shaped open stubs are incorpo...

An Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) loaded square waveguide Band-Pass Filter (BPF) is proposed in this paper. It’s simply composed by symmetrically loading periodical metal diaphragms on each wall of a square waveguide. The influences of insert sizes and loading periods on the overall BPF performances are analyzed. Experimental results agree well with those predicted. 6 GHz pass-band with insert ...

In this pare, a wideband three-order bandpass filter (BPF) is proposed. The proposed wideband filter is designed using the substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structure by loading T-shape slots. A BPF with two resonators is formed by etching T-shape slots with different size on the top metal plane of the SIW structure. The filter is investigated with the theory of coupled resonator circuits. T...

The performance of a high pass filter (HPF) and a band pass filter (BPF) with and without defected ground structure (DGS) was analyzed in this specific work. The Defected ground structure includes rectangular and circular etched shapes in ground plane. Calculation and comparison of the response of both filters was done separately. Parameters of the proposed configuration were calculated at the ...

UWB band-pass filter (BPF) with wireless local area network (WLAN) notch at 5.8 GHz and 3-dB fractional band...

A planar band pass filter topology is built using broadside coupled structure. The design is aimed at achieving pass band that covers the frequency range from 3.1GHz to 10.6 GHz. as required by modern Ultra Wide Band (UWB) indoor and outdoor communication systems . Multiple unlicensed users could share spectrum previously allocated to the users, including licensed users, on a non-interference b...

In this paper, we report the design and implementation of a low-noise, tunable, active microwave band pass filter (BPF) which incorporates an injection-locked Gunn oscillator. The BPF has a centre frequency of 10.30 GHz and a 3-dB bandwidth of 52 MHz. Calculation shows that this active BPF can reduce the input signal AM noise by at least 38 dB. This BPF possesses signal amplification as well as...
