In this paper, the unit cell of LH structure using microstrip transmission line and chip capacitor is devised, and the reactive components of equivalent circuit are extracted from the proposed unit cell. And then, we have analyzed for the unit cell parameters and applied the characteristics to the wideband high pass filter design. This filter cascading several unit cells with high pass property has been implemented on microstrip transmission line, and the performance has been the band rejection characteristics of 62.9 dB in the stop band to 0~2.18 GHz and less than the insertion loss of 1.17 dB in the pass band from 3.0G Hz to 12.75 GHz.

A novel design method of ultra wideband based on the composite right-/left handed (CRLH) transmission line is presented in this paper. Defected ground structure and microstrip interdigital coupler are used to implement the CRLH transmission line. The proposed CRLH transmission line in this paper have composite characteristics of low pass filter and high pass filter, also it has good advantages of low insertion loss and ultra wide passband characteristics. The structure with different cell number are studied, and the UWB filter using 3-cell CRLH transmission line is fabricated and measured, which shows a good agreement between simulated and measured results. It has center frequency of 5 GHz, fractional bandwidth of 105 %, and insertion loss of 0.7 dB at center frequency.

A compact microstrip band-selective filter for ultra-wideband(UWB) radio system is proposed. The filter combines the traditional short-circuited stub highpass filter and coupled resonator band-stop filter on both sides of the mitered 50-ohm microstrip line. To realize the pseudo-highpass filtering characteristic over UWB frequency band(3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz), a distributed highpass filter scheme is adopted. Three coupled resonators are utilized to obtain the band stop function at the desired frequency band. By meandering the coupled resonators, there is $29\;\%$ size reduction in footprint compared to the traditional band-stop filter using L-shaped resonators. The measured results show that the filter has a wide passband of $146.7\;\%$(2.1 GHz to 10.15 GHz) with low insertion loss and the stop band of $10.04\;\%$(5.2 GHz to 5.75 GHz) for 3-dB bandwidth. The measured group delay is less than 0.7 ns within the passband except the rejection band.
