In this study, a 40 GHz band pass filter(BPF) employing a hair-pin structure has been designed, fabricated, and characterized for millimeter-wave wireless communication applications. Using the 3 dimensional(3-D) electromagnetic(EM) tool and design equations of the hairpin BPF, the BPF was desgned on the 5 mil-thick Duroid substrate(RT5880) with a relative dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) of 2.2. The tapping point (t) of the U-shape resonator in the input and output port has been determined using extracted an external Q-factor ($Q_e$). The coupling coefficients between the other resonators are calculated by adjusting the physical dimensions for the desired response of the BPF. The fabricated BPF was characterized using probing method on a probe station. Its measured center frequency(fc) and fractional BW are 41.6 GHz and 7.43 %, respectively. The measured return loss is below -10 dB at the pass band and the insertion loss is 3.87 dB. The fabricated BPF is as small as $9.1{\times}2.8mm^2$.

This paper proposes a method of generalizing the clocking scheme in the Switched Capacitor Filter(SCF) design using Voltage Inverter Switches (VIS's). Parallel RC and RL elements, and parallel LC resonators can be implemented by the proposed clocking schemes Applying these new elements and the generalized clocking schemes to the SCF design, the total number of required operational amplifiers and capacitors can be reduced. Experimental results of a band- stop filter and a low-pass filter using a new type grounded VIS show good agreements with t he theoretical characteristics.

In this paper, a distributed amplifier is designed using distributed network synthesis that provides the optimum absorption capability of a capacitance. Transfer functions of filters, which consist of the amplifier, are synthesized by a low-pass Chebyshev approximation. Capacitances that a filter network can absorb are calculated as a function of its minimum insertion loss(MIL) and ripple. Active devices in a distributed amplifier are modeled as equivalent circuits by using their S-parameters, and their equivalent capacitances are absorbed into filter structures by properly adjusting the MIL and ripple of a transfer function. As an application example, a distributed amplifier with the gain of about 12.5dB is designed that operates over the frequency range between 0.1 and 7.5GHz. Experimental results prove that distributed network synthesis, which considers capacitance absorption capability, is useful to the design of distributed amplifiers.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated C-band bandpass filter using dielectric resonators. From waveguide cutoff frequency which applied the region between adjacent dielectric resonators, the height of cavity is determined. The cavity's diameter is determined to the twice of dielectric resonator? diameter considering the conductor loss. The resonant frequency of the DR cavity is calculated with non decaying mode analysis. Conventionally, cylindrical dielectric resonator is analysed by Cohn's model which use the decaying mode in the region between dielectric resonator wall and circular cavity wall, which is an approximated method. The external quality factor, $Q_{ex}$ has found with simulation result using Ansoft's Maxwell simulation tool. The designed filter using dielectric resonators with dielectric constant of 45 has the passband center at 5.065GHz. The bandpass filter using dielectric resonators has about 1dB insertion loss, 20MHz bandwidth and more than 30dB attenuation at $f_0+15MHz$.

This paper deals with a size-reduced Ku-band waveguide limiter. Basically, it passes the signal from 16.125 GHz through 16.375 GHz, but when excessively high power is injected to the input port, it should change to a bandstop filter. Furthermore, it is required to change to bring attenuation by more than 20 dB and 50 dB over a narrow band and the entire passband, respectively. Therefore, in order to meet this requirement, a limiting device is implemented with multiple PIN-diode posts that enable the limiter to be the bandpass filter and stopband one at the off and on states of the PIN-diode switch, respectively. So, the design goes through the equivalent circuit modelling and the geometry is realized in the accurate electromagnetic analysis CAD tool. Finally, the result is discussed to shed light on whether it complies with the aforementioned requirement.

This paper proposes a design of a dual-band band-pass filter that integrates a λg/2 open SIR structure, a transmission line, and a fork-type structure with symmetric and asymmetric open stubs. To obtain the dual-band effect, the proposed filter uses the SIR structure and adjusts the impedance ratio of the SIR structure. Therefore, the position of the harmonics of the filter is shifted through the adjustment of the impedance ratio, and this can obtain a double-band effect. In order to obtain the dual-band characteristics, the dual-band effect is obtained by inserting a open stub between the SIR structures with the SIR structure divided in half. In addition, the second frequency response is obtained by adjusting the length of the open symmetrical stub in the fork-shaped structure. The asymmetrical open stub in the fork form achieves optimum bandwidth by adjusting the length. Therefore, the first center frequency of the proposed band-pass filter is 5.896 GHz and the bandwidth is 13.6 %. At this time, the measurement results are 0.13 dB and 33.6 dB. The second center frequency is 5.906 GHz and the bandwidth is 13.6 %. At this time, the measurement results are 0.15 dB and 19.8 dB. The reason is that when the impedance ratio (Δ) is higher than 1, the position of the harmonic is shifted to a lower frequency band. However, if the impedance ratio (Δ) is lowered by one step, the position of harmonics will move to a higher frequency band. The function of the filter designed using these characteristics can be obtained from the measurement result. The proposed band-pass filter has no coupling loss and no via energy concentration loss because there is no coupling structure of input/output and no via hole. Therefore, system integration is possible due to its excellent performance, and it is expected that dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) system applications used in traffic communication systems will be possible.

A new design method of microstrip wide band VHF tunable bandpass filters using varacter diodes is presented. In the proposed filter both the input and output ports are coupled through capacitors, and an open micro-strip line is inserted between the coupled line in order to obtain the desired degree of coupling. The optimized filter responseses for the frequency range of 220-404MHz by TOUCH-STONE are compared with the measured ones.

In this paper, the probabilistic relations of dual morphological operations, such as dilation and erosion, closing and opening, and close- open and open-close, and the statistical properties for a continuous stationary lst order Gauss-Markov source are analyzed. The result is that the dual filters have symmetrical means and skews, and equal variances. Also, the statistics of morphological filters are very similar with those of input source, as correlation coefficient increases.

In this paper, a very efficient CAD algorithm is proposedd where rhodes formulae combined with distributed lowpass prototype filter in order to design the corrugated waveguide harmonic rejection filters accurately. The proposed algorithm resolves effectively the problem of proximity effect without any optimiation or iterative design process by using the internally convexed corrugated structure. A 13-section tapered corrugated lowpass filter has been designed by the proposed algorithm and fabricated. The experimental results are in good agreement with the calculated results.
