Design and Analysis of Microstrip Band Reject Filter with Modified Rectangular and Hexagonal Shape Ground Structure
Abstract: In this proposed paper, the performance of band stop filter with modified ground structure is examined; the modified ground structure includes four rectangular and a hexagonal etched shapes in ground plane. Parameters of the proposed design were calculated at the cut off frequencies of f1=1.16 GHz, f2=1.89 GHz and also proposed designs having substrate height of 1.6 mm, loss tangent of 0.02 and dielectric constant of 4.4. Results are calculated …

An Overview of Elliptical Low Pass Filter by using Defected Ground Structure Method
Abstract: Calculation and differentiation of the response of elliptical low pass filter (LPF) with and without using defected ground structure (DGS) was done. In the present work, return loss, bandwidth and gain have been evaluated. All the designs are printed on the FR4 lossy substrate of dielectric constant ( ) of 4.3, substrate thickness of 1.6 mm and loss tangent of 0.02. Moreover, the effect of controlling parameters namely slots and …

Compact Dual Band Rat Race Coupler Using T-shaped Transmission Line and Fractal Geometry
Abstract: In this paper, a compact dual band rat race coupler is proposed at two different frequency bands. The dual band property is accomplished by transforming the length and impedance of conventional quarter wave transmission line into dual band T-shaped sections. To achieve the compactness, the dual band rat race coupler was transformed into fractal structure using Sierpinski curve analogy. Simple design equations are used for basic design geometries. Then the …
