Abstract

In this papaer, a new type of ${\lambda}_g/4$ short stub band pass filter and ${\lambda}_g/2$ open stub band pass filter are purposed. Both are designed using FSCS technique for harmonic suppression. The proposed filters that used FSCS technique and a broadband stop filter is integrated to band pass filter to suppress the harmonics. The BSF are also placed between stubs so that the size is larger than prevent as compared to conventional one. The propose filters have center frequency of 5.8 GHz, bandwidth of 50% and harmonics suppressin is 120% has in bandwith. The measurement results in the case of ${\lambda}_g/4$ short stub filter, insertion loss of 0.5 dB, return loss of 14 dB are achieved and in the case of ${\lambda}_g/2$ open stub filter, loss of 0.8 dB, return loss of 14.4 dB are achieved. The simulation results and the measurement results are almost the same.

본 논문에서는 FSCS를 이용한 고조파가 억제된 ${\lambda}_g/4$ 단락형 스터브 대역통과 여파기와 ${\lambda}_g/2$ 개방형 스터브 대역통과 여파기를 새로운 구조로 제안 설계하였다. 제안된 여파기는 FSCS를 이용한 광대역 대역저지 여파기를 대역통과 여파기에 집적화 시켜 제2 고조파를 억제하였고, 스터브 사이에 BSF를 집적화하여 크기의 증가를 방지하여 22% 감소하였다. 제안된 여파기는 중심주파수 5.8 GHz에서 통과 대역폭 50%, 고조파 저지대역 120% 광대역 대역통과 여과기의 특성을 나타내었고, ${\lambda}_g/4$ 단락형 스터브 여파기의 경우 삽입손실 0.5 dB, 반사손실 14 dB의 측정결과를 ${\lambda}_g/2$ 개방형 스터브 여파기의 경우는 삽입손실 0.8 dB, 반사손실 14.4 dB의 측정결과를 얻었으며, 시뮬레이션 결과와 측정결과가 유사하게 나타났다.
