Abstract

In this paper, we propose a wideband band-stop filter (BSF) in order to extend the stopband of the band-stop filter using a symmetric dual spurline and the coupled open stub. First, we know that the symmetric dual spurline structure is advantageous in widening the stopband, as compared to the asymmetric dual spurline structure. So we designed a band-stop filter that combines the electrically coupled open stub (ECOS) band-stop filter with a symmetric dual spurline. We can greatly extend the stopband, when it is combined with the dual spurline and electrically coupled open stub on a microstrip transmission line, without any size increment. The stopband of the proposed band-stop filter is extended by approximately 244% (rejection depth: -20 dB) compared with a band-stop filter without a dual spurline.

본 논문은 마이크로스트립을 이용한 대역저지 필터의 저지 대역을 확장시키기 위하여 끝단이 전기적으로 커플링된 오픈 스터브 대역저지 필터에 이중 스퍼라인을 결합하는 구조를 제안한다. 먼저 시뮬레이션을 통해 대칭 이중 스퍼라인 구조와 비대칭 이중 스퍼라인 구조의 S21을 비교해보았을 때 대칭 이중 스퍼라인 구조가 비대칭 이중 스퍼라인 구조에 비해 저지 대역폭이 더 넓게 확장됨을 알 수 있었다. 그러므로 대칭 이중 스퍼라인을 하나의 마이크로스트립 전송선로 위에 병렬로 위치한 두 개의 오픈 스터브의 끝단을 전기적으로 커플링 시킨 대역저지 필터에 결합시킴으로 필터의 크기를 그대로 유지하면서도 저지 대역폭을 크게 확장시켰다. 본 논문에서 제안한 대역저지 필터의 저지 대역폭은 3.1 GHz로 스퍼라인이 없는 병렬 오픈 스터브 필터에 비해 약 244 % (억압값:-20dB 이하) 까지 확장되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
