High order filters are usually realized by cascading second order stages. In this paper, a simple method of pole-zero pairing in the high order band-pass and band-reject filter realization of the elliptic functions is proposed for the enhancement of overall dynamic range. Futrhermore, the optimum sequence of the various biquads of high-pass notch, low-pass notch and symmetrical notch etc., is developed for the elliptic band-pass and band-reject filters.

When passband ripple α/sub p/ and stopband attenuation α/sub s/ at the w/sub s/ where the stopband begins are specified in filter design, △α/sub s/ usually exceeds the specification by △α/sub s/ due to the necessity that the order n of the filter function be an integer. In this paper, we apply a trade-off method to remove the excess stopband attenuation △α/sub s/ for reducing the value of pole-Q and improving the characteristics of the Chebyshev filter function. We also apply the trade-off method of pole-Q reduction to the modified Chebyshev function, and then the 4 types of function have been analyzed to compare in frequency and time domain characteristics. The trade-off method reduces the pole-Q which influences the filter characteristics to maximum 49.6% without increase of the order n. Thus implies that they have the improved characteristics such as the reduced passband ripple and flatter delay characteristics as compared Chebyshev filter function before trade-off. And the unit step response shows shorter delay time and settling time in time domain performance.

A novel circuit structure of dual-band bandstop filters is proposed in this paper. This structure comprises two shunt-connected tri-section stepped impedance resonators with a transmission line in between. Theoretical analysis from the equivalent circuit and design procedures are described. We represented graphs for filter design from the derived synthesis equations by resonance condition of circuits. Notably, advantages of the proposed filter structure are compact size in design, wide range of realizable resonance frequency ratio, and more realizable impedances.

In this paper, the modified generalized Chebyshev rational function is presented. The new element values of prototype low pass filter are obtained by network synthesis using this rational function. This proposed filter has an equal ripple passband as same as conventional generalized Chebyshev filter, but unlike conventional filter which has only one attenuation pole at finite frequency, the proposed filter has two different from each other attenuation pole in stopband. If the harmonic frequency is set to the second attenuation pole frequency, this harmonic is suppressed efficiently. Furthermore, since the location of the second attenuation pole can be arbitrary adjusted. our filters are very available for the realization of wide stopband, particularly.

Harmonic band of bandpass filter(BPF) is suppressed using coupled mushroom structure. Between double positive (DPS) transmission line such as microstrip and double negative(DNG) transmission line such as one dimensional mushroom structure, strong coupling broadly arises in the cross range of dispersion curves of isolated microstrip and mushroom structure because of complex propagation constant in the cross range. Strong coupling inhibits wave propagation, so that this kind of structure can be utilized as bandstop filter(BSF). This BSF utilizes coupled transmission line instead of coupled resonator, resulting in broad bandwidth(>30 %), shan-rejection, and high rejection level. The strong coupling between DPS and DNG transmissionline makes it possible shorten coupling length, resulting in compact size. In this paper, parallel coupled BSF having center frequency of 4 GHz and 3 dB fractional bandwidth of 40 % is designed and utilized to suppressed spurious mode of two bandpass filters.

본 논문에서는 CSRR을 이용하여 0.5~1.5GHz 대역의 광대역 필터를 최적 설계 연구 하였다. Metamaterial의 일종인 CSRR은 LC 공진기 역할을 하며 전송선로와 결합하여 필터 특성을 나타낸다. 또한 높은 Q-factor의 특성을 갖기 때문에 협대역 대역통과 필터 특성을 갖는다. 이에 본 논문에서는 CSRR을 이용하여 광대역 대역통과 특성을 갑기 위해서 전송선로의 형태를 변형하고 진화알고리즘중 하나인 진화 전략기법을 이용하여 단일 셀의 최적 설계를 수행하였다. 이후 단위 셀을 다단으로 연결하여 최종 광대역 필터를 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 설계된 광대역 필터는 0.5~1.5GHz의 대역폭을 갖으며 00~00dB의 삽입손실을 갖는다. 그리고 저지대역에서 00~00dB의 저지 특성을 갖는다.

이 논문에서는 IS-95와 WCDMA의 Multi-mode로 동작하는 Multi-mode용 저전력 DDC filter 구조를 제안한다. 기존의 DDC구조의 경우 CIC의 통과대역 특성을 향상시켜 주지만, 저지대역의 감쇠특성은 오히려 나빠지는 문제점을 안고 있었다. 제안된 구조는 CIC 데시메이션 필터의 통과대역 특성은 더욱 향상시켜주며, 저지대역의 감쇠특성도 같이 향상시키는 특징을 가진다. 또한 제안된 절터는 각 필터의 면적을 감소시키기 위해 IS-95와 WCDMA의 각각의 모드에 대해 한 개의 필터를 설계한 후 각 모드에 따라 필터 탭 수를 달리하여 동작하는 Multi-mode의 저전력 구조로 구현하였다.

The C-band semi-lumped lowpass filter with broad stopband and compact size characteristic using chip inductor is proposed. To provide an additional attenuation pole in stopband by SRF, a separable inductor is added to proposed structure, and it has broad stopband characteristic.

We have studied the design of the photonic bandgap (PBG) structure on the microstrip line that can effectively control the fractional bandwidth of the passband formed in the stopband by adding the stub in the cell of the microstrip PBG structure. As the length of the stub increases, the cutoff frequency and the center frequency of the stopband are decreased, while the bandwidth of the stopband is increased. We have also found that the fractional bandwidth of the passband formed in stopband by the introduction of defect decreases as the stub length is increased. These results mean that adding the stub in the normal PBG structure is an effective way to control the fractional bandwidth. As an application example, we have implemented a microwave duplexer using the proposed structure.

In this paper, small UWB antenna with band-stop function for mobile handsets is proposed. A gap between radiator and under and side ground is adjusted for small size and broadband. A radiator is folded to the back side of PCB for miniaturization and tapered feeding structure is used to enhance matching characteristic. A antenna clearance has a size of $14{\times}14\;mm^2$ and a size of radiator is $10{\times}7\;mm^2$. It covers all UWB band from 3.15 GHz to 4.75 GHz and from 7.2 GHz to 10.2 GHz for VSWR<2 and has band stop characteristic at 5.8 GHz. A maximum gain is measured as 5.85 GHz. In case conventional handset case is considered, it also covers all UWB and a maximum gain is measured from -2 dBi to -2 dBi.
