Compact microstrip lowpass filter using a meander‐line structure

Abstract

A novel compact microstrip lowpass filter using N‐turn meander line structure is proposed. This low pass filter provides a transmission zero near the passband edge and low passband insertion loss. Both the cutoff frequency and transmission zero can be easily controlled by changing the meander line dimensions to ease the filter design. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Compact Bandstop Filter for UHF in Modified Meander Arrangement with Capacitors

“…Limitations on dimensions are a common obstacle and in the literature, one can find reports on filters designed with compactness as the priority, for example, Refs. ; however, the presented results do not show that these filters are able to block a distortion in nearby spectrum. Filters capable of this task, like reported in Refs.…”
