Abstract

A coupled-defected ground structure(C-DGS) having closely-located DGS cells is proposed for high performance bandstop filter applications. The negative coupling of ground currents between adjacent DGS cells greatly improves the stopband characteristics. We have measured the attenuation slope of 110.8 dB/GHz and -20 dB rejection band from 3.8 GHz to 15.5 GHz. Compared to the double-plane BSF, the proposed BSF improved the sharp cutoff response 7.6 times. We expect the C-DGS be helpful to improve the performance of DGS application circuits and also to extend the possible DGS applications.

본 논문에서는 DGS 사이의 거리를 좁힌 C-DGS(Coupled-Defected Ground Structure)를 제 안하고, 이를 이용하여 차단 특성이 향상된 BSF(Bandstop Filter)를 제안하였다. 제안된 C-DGS는 각 DGS가 가지고 있는 인덕턴스 성분에 자계 결합을 발생시켜, 주기적인 구조를 가진 DGS와 비교해서 차단 특성이 향상된다. 또한, 제안된 C-DGS를 기존 보고된 양면 BSF에 적용시킨 새로운 BSF를 제작 및 측정하였다. C-DGS를 이용한 BSF는 3.8 GHz에서 15.5 GHz의 -20 dB 저지 대역을 가지며, 차단 특성은 110.8 dB/GHz로 기존 양면 대역 저지 여파기와 비교해서 차단 특성을 7.6배 향상시켰다. 제안된 C-DGS는 DGS를 이용한 고성능 여파기 설계에서 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것이다.
