In this paper, a microstrip lowpass filter with an ultra-wide stopband with sharp roll-off and compact size is designed and fabricated. To provide a very small dimension, T-shaped and stepped impedance have been used. The cut of frequency at -3 dB is 3.1 GHz. In the proposed structure, insertion loss is less than 0.12 and return loss is more than 15 dB. To achieve a -20dB attenuation level...

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...

— In this paper, the ultra-wideband (UWB) bandpass filter (BPF) with a wide stopband is presented. The prototype of proposed UWB BPF is by bending the five short-circuited stubs and coupling the I/O feed lines. In order to have a wide stopband, an bandstop structure embedded in input/output (I/O) lines without degrading the passband performances is used. The measured results verified that by us...

This paper proposed a planar microstrip ultra wideband (UWB) bandpass filter (BPF) with wide upper stopband designed for applications in UWB wireless communication as stated by Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The proposed UWB filter is realized with a basic multiple mode resonator (MMR) structure feed by interdigital coupled lines for achieving higher degree of coupling. To achieve a w...

© 2015 Gholamreza Karimi et al. 945 http://dx.doi.org/10.4218/etrij.15.0114.0188 A novel microstrip low-pass filter is presented to achieve an ultra-wide stopband with 11 harmonic suppression and very sharp skirt characteristics. The filter is composed of a modified U-shaped resonator (which creates two fully adjustable transmission zeroes), a T-shaped resonator (which determines a cut-off freq...

This paper presents the design of a microstrip ultra-wideband (UWB) bandpass filter that exhibits desirable characteristics low-loss, high selectivity, wide stopband and out-of-band rejection at room temperature. These are normally achieved with temperature superconductor filters require cryogenic cooling. The proposed was realized by exciting multiple resonant modes in unique Z-shaped resonato...
