Compact Microstrip Lowpass Filter with Wide Stopband and High Attenuation

摘要

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. Measurement and simulation results are in good agreement.
