Uwb Filter Using Defected Ground Structure of Von Koch Fractal Shape Slot

Abstract: Abstract-A coupled defected ground structure (CDGS) is presented which is synthesized by etching Von Koch fractal shape slot in the ground plane and series capacitive gap in the conductor strip. Unlike the structures loaded with complementary split ring resonators (CSRRs), the proposed structure can operate at very wide band. A UWB filter using the above structure is fabricated and tested. The relative bandwidth of the −10 dB return loss is 128% and the insertion loss is better than 1.5 dB except at high frequ… Show more

“…The fractal edges compensate for the different even and odd mode phase velocities that produce the unwanted harmonic. The Koch fractal has been used as a defected ground plane resonator to achieve a UWB filter response [2]. In this case, the fractal structure is used mainly for its compactness, and 128% bandwidth is demonstrated.…”

“…The parallel coupled-line microstrip filter fabricated on a printed circuit board usually has a relatively small bandwidth [15], which is mainly due to the fact that the reductions of strip width and strip spacing using conventional fabrication methods were limited. In [5][6][7][8][9], wideband filters having a wide FBW were achieved by using etched patterns in the ground plane or via holes. However, the structures with holes in the substrate or etched patterns in the ground plane have the disadvantages, such as package problems, sensitivity and difficult realization in monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs).…”

“…Design of the bandpass filter is recently becoming stricter due to the increasing development of the Ultra-Wideband (UWB) systems, which attract great potential in various modern transmission systems, such as through-wall imaging, medical imaging, vehicular radar, indoor, and hand-held UWB systems, etc [1]. Being one of the important component blocks, efforts to develop wideband filters were made [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] in order to achieve such a specified fractional bandwidth (FBW, defined as 3 dB bandwidth over designed center frequency). In [2], a wideband equal-ripple filter with cascaded serial and shunt transmission-line sections produced a wide FBW of 54% and transmission zeros near the passband edges.…”

“…Desired strong coupling between feed lines and MMR is achieved by extremely narrow gap, leading to critical fabrication precision requirements. Then aperture-backed microstrip line technique is used to achieve the desired strong coupling with relatively easy fabrication gap [5,6]. Recently, broadside-coupled structures have received great attention due to the merit associated with the electromagnetic coupling [7,8].…”
