A novel printed octagonal fractal microstrip antenna with semi-elliptical ground plane is presented for ultra wide band applications. The proposed antenna has a compact size of 20×20×1 mm³. The measured result of the antenna exhibits the ultra wide band characteristics from 2/9 to 14/2 GHz. In this paper, reducing antenna’s size by 35%, the same results were achieved, while small dimension frac...

In this brief, a wide stopband bandpass filter is designed based on the substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) coupling with complementary split ring resonators (CSRRs) and defect ground structure resonators. The proposed exhibits excellent roll-off characteristics single SIW resonator cavity. A simple capacitive slot line also to improve flatness in passband. order verify feasibility of scheme, ...

In this letter, a compact wideband bandpass filter (BPF) with wide stopband is proposed based on the substrate integrated defected ground structure (SIDGS) and folded stepped-impedance resonator (FSIR). Such SIDGS can not only allocate specific resonance size but also introduce different harmonic positions compared traditional microstrip line resonator. Meanwhile, due to discrepant of FSIR, res...

This paper presents a miniaturized wideband bandpass filter with wide stopband performance. It is shown that the coupled metamaterial-based resonators (MBRs) incorporating with the defected ground structure (DGS) can significantly increase the coupling value to achieve wideband bandpass filter. This technique has been extended to realize wideband bandpass filter having fractional bandwidth of 6...

A novel method of using bypass coupling SICC resonator to generate transmission zeros in filter stopband to improve stopband attenuation is presented. A SIW quasi-elliptic function filter for Satellite Communication application with bypass coupling SICC resonator is designed and fabricated to validate the method. The results show that the method is effective on improving the filter stopband per...
