The work presented in this paper is an attempt to design filters with coupled microstrip lines on multilayered dielectric media using methods employed in other applications. A procedure was formulated for designing filters with the desired frequency response and smaller size using insertion loss method combined with the theory of multiconductor transmission lines. The frequency response was verified by considering that the filters act as cascaded four-port networks. The results were in a very good agreement with those expected from the theoretically design procedure. PACS No.: 84.40D

In this paper, a microstrip lowpass filter with wide stopband and sharp roll-off is presented. The proposed filter consists of a modified radial stub resonator which is cascaded by four suppressing cells. To reduce the overall size, the transmission lines are folded. The cut-off frequency of the proposed filter is 1.19 GHz. The transition band is approximately 0.2 GHz from 1.19 to 1.39 GHz with corresponding attenuation levels of 3–20 dB. The stopband is from 1.39 to 19 GHz with attenuation level of <20 dB. The insertion loss and return loss in the passband from DC to 0.8 GHz are better than 0.26 and 14 dB, respectively. The proposed filter is fabricated and measured. The simulated and measured results are in good agreement.

AbstractThis paper presents a miniaturized 3-dB branch-line coupler based on slow-wave microstrip transmission lines. The miniaturized coupler operating at 2.45 GHz is designed and implemented on a double-layer printed circuit board substrate with blind metallic vias embedded in the lower substrate layer providing the slow-wave effect. Based on this concept, a 43% size miniaturization is achieved as compared with a classical microstrip branch-line coupler prototype. The measured S parameters present a return loss of 25.5 dB and an average insertion loss equal to 0.05 dB at the operating frequency.
