Microstrip stepped impedance filters with variable dielectric or variable width

A stepped impedance filter has been realised on a modified substrate. The change in impedance was achieved by varying the dielectric constant in the substrate while maintaining a constant width of the microstrip. In contrast to conventional stepped impedance filters the impedance is varied by the dielectric constant instead of the microstrip line width. The manufactured filter was measured and compared with an equivalent conventional stepped impedance filter. It is shown that the modified substrate technology could offer an alternative to the standard approach for the stepped impedance filter. In combination with new materials with a high permittivity the technology could also offer a denser package since the microstrip width could be controlled as desired.

The Half-Wave Stepped Digital Elliptic Filter

A design procedure for narrow-band bandpass TEM-line elliptic-function filters is presented. The proposed realization is in the form of a stepped-impedance digital n-wire line which is one-half of a wavelength long at midband and short circuited to ground at both ends, where the digital line is stepped in impedance along any arbitrary prescribed plane in the filter. Due to its physical form and mode of electrical operation, the filter has been termed the half-wave stepped digital elliptic filter. A detailed design procedure for the construction of the two characteristic admittance matrices which describe the digital n-wire line from the low-pass prototype element values is presented. It is also shown that the normalized impedance values of the elements in the filter are all of the order of unity and independent of the actual bandwidth of the falter except for the input and output transformer elements. A numerical example and experimental results on a seventh-degree 1-percent bandwidth filter with a center frequency at 3.7 GHz are given, demonstrating the significant improvements which may be obtained from the half-wave stepped digital elliptic filter over most other known form of microwave TEM-line narrow-band bandpass filter.     

Compact Dual-Band Filter Using Defected Stepped Impedance Resonator

This letter presents a novel approach for designing a dual-band bandpass filter by using defected stepped impedance resonator (DSIR). The resonant frequency of the DSIR is found to be much lower than that of the conventional microstrip stepped impedance resonator (SIR), which reduces the circuit size effectively. Two types of second-order DSIR microstrip bandpass filter operating at 1.85 and 2.35 GHz, respectively, are well designed according to the classical theory of coupled resonator filter. Then they are combined to construct a compact dual-band filter with a common parallel microstrip feed line, the measurement results of the fabricated filter have a good agreement with the simulation.     

Novel Dual-Band Filter Incorporating Defected SIR and Microstrip SIR

This letter presents a novel approach to design dual-band bandpass filter by using defected stepped impedance resonator (DSIR) and microstrip stepped impedance resonator (MSIR). A pair of MSIRs on the upper plane forms a cross coupled filtering passage, and a pair of DSIRs at the lower plane constructs a linear phase filtering passage. Both of them are fed by a common T-shaped microstrip feed line with source-load coupling. Then they are directly combined to construct a compact dual-band filter with two passbands centering at 2.35 GHz and 3.15 GHz, respectively. The measurement results agree well with the full-wave electromagnetic designed responses.

The Stepped Digital Elliptic Filter

The design and synthesis of various types of microwave elliptic function filters has been accomplished by a number of authors. However, one problem in this field which remains is the realization of compact narrow-band bandpass elliptic function filters. In this paper, a procedure is presented which enables this class of filters to be constricted in a compact digital form. Since the physical realization is in the form of an n-wire line, one-quarter of a wavelength Iong at the center frequency of the passband, where the impedance levels are stepped along the center of the coupled lines, the filter has been termed the stepped digital elliptic filter. The absence of awkward interconnections in the filter due to the stepped digital structure inherently implies that reasonable insertion loss characteristics may be achieved in the X-band region and above, and also simplifies the mechanical construction. It is shown that the resonant elements in the filter, due to the design procedure adopted, are relatively insensitive to the absolute bandwidth of the filter, and consequently fractional bandwidths of approximately 30 percent and below may be readily achieved while the normalized impedance values of the elements in the network remain of the order of unity. This latter result is similar to that obtainable from conventional interdigital filters but in the case of narrow bandwidths the stepped digital filter is considerably smaller in physical size. A systematic procedure is also formulated for the inclusion of the parasitic lumped end effect capacitances into the overall design procedure in order to maintain the equiripple passband and stopband responses. Experimental results are presented for a five-element, 11 percent bandwidth filter and are shown to be in good agreement with theoretical predictions.
