For the purpose of improving the stopband characteristics, the filter structure having single or double inserted metal plates in the waveguide of a reduced width have been widely stdudied so far. Usually such structures have a waveguide junction discontinuity between two waveguides of different widths. In designing such structures, we should always minimize the insertion loss due to the juction discontinuity. Besides it is difficult to fabricate the junction with desired accuracy. Here we consider new structure of tripple metal insert filter without the junction discontinuity problem, which is more suitable for mass production. An optimization procedure is taken with manufacturing error 0.1mm of inserted metal length. The theory agrees well with experimental data. so, it is show that fabrication of triple metal insert filter is more profitabel by optimization process.

The elliptic functions have transmission zeros on the imaginary axis and exhibit equal ripples in the stopband as well as in the passband. As a consequence they can be made optimal in the sense that the transition band is minimal. However the time domain behaviors turned out to be inferior to those of Chebyshev and Butterworth responses. This paper investigates the unit step responses and impulse responses in order to analyze the effects of various parameters such as passband attenuation, stopband frequencies M. etc., The following are the prominent features. Step responses of elliptic filters rise faster and produce larger overshoots and undershoots with higher natural frequencies. In the case of even functions, the initial values are non-zero which decreases as $\omega$s increases. Unlike Butter-worth or Chebyshev cases the impulse responses start with nonzero valses which also decrease as $\omega$s or order of the function increases. Eight figures are included to illustrate above analysis.

In this research, we suggested a new PBG cell with wide stopband. In order to improve the characteristics of the insertion loss, return loss, and ripple, we used two overlapped cells. One is small cell which is made in inside and the other is large cell which is made in outside. The inner cell stops the high band and the outer cell stops the low band. As a result, the new PBG cell had a wide stop band. Insertion loss was about 40dB in stopband and the ripple, and the return loss was improved. Also, the passband is broaden by employing new PBG cells.

In this paper, the extended inverse Chebyshev function have been derived from Chebyshev function. We presented normalized biquads coefficients of n=5, 6 for passband attenuation Ap(dB)=0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and stopband frequency Ws(rad/s)=1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6. A designed low-pass filter from extended inverse Chebyshev transfer function produces the magnitude haracteristic which is maximally flat in the passband and equalripple in the stopband as shown in fig. 3(c), (d). Finally, it showed the magnitude and loss characteristics through realistic circuit simulation, and presented element values.

This paper proposes the design method based on the composite right/left-handed (CRLH) structure to miniaturize and enhance the rejection performance in the stopband. For realization, we used the 0-th order resonance point of the unbalanced case of the CRLH and the simple theory of Inverter. The proposed technique is validated by the performance predictions and experiments, and it is found out that the suggested method enables the sire reduction of over 65 % from the conventional filters such as the parallel coupled type.

This paper presents a tri-wideband bandpass filter (TWB-BPF) with compact size, high band-to-band isolation, and multiple transmission zeros (TZs). The proposed TWB-BPF is based on a multiple-mode resonator (MMR), which is interpreted by the method of the even- and odd-mode analysis technique. The MMR can excite 11 resonant modes, where the first two modes comprise the first passband, the next four modes form the second passband, and the last five modes are used to generate the third passband. In addition, 10 TZs are yielded to obtain high band-to-band isolation and wide stopband suppression characteristics up to $14.95f_{c1}$ ($f_{c1}$ is the center frequency of the first passband). To verify the proposed filter, a TWB-BPF with 3-dB fractional bandwidths (FBWs) of 37.4%, 43.5%, and 40.4% is designed, fabricated, and measured.

In this paper, we introduce a modified short-circuited stub bandpass filter suitable for ultra-wideband(UWB) applications utilizing low temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) technology. By modifying the conventional short-circuited stub bandpass filter structure with stubs and connecting lines of lower characteristic impedances, the number of stubs has been reduced from 5 to 2 on a high dielectric constant substrate($\varepsilon_r$ = 40). A wireless local area network (WLAN) stopband in the frequency range of 5.15 to 5.825 GHz has been inserted into the filter characteristic using three short-circuited coupled lines. The filter has been measured with an insertion loss less than 1.0 dB and return loss better than 10 dB in the pass bands. A bandwidth ratio of 109.49 % has been achieved. Measurement results agree well with simulation results. The dimensions of the filter are $4{\times}8{\times}0.57\;mm^3$.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated a ultra-wideband(UWB) bandpass filter with a good performance of a stopband, and a notched band in passband. The transformed equivalent circuit of the highpass filter was realized by distributed element. A wide-passband with 3-dB fractional bandwidth of more than 100 % was achieved by using optimum response of the HPF. For improving lower and upper stopband characteristic, a cross coupling between feed lines was employed, which was analyzed by desegmentation technique. In order to reject interference of Wireless LAN and Hyper LAN(5.15~5.825 GHz), the narrow notched(rejection) band was realized by a spurline. The fabricated BPF indicated the passband from 3.1 to 10.55 GHz and the flat group delay of less than 0.94 ns over the entire passband except the rejection band. The filter shown sharp attenuation both inside and outside the band and notched band from 5.2 to 6.12 GHz.

A Micorstrip Bandpass Filter Using DBRs for WLAN ($2.3{\sim}2.4GHz$) applications is designed and an EBG structure is employed in the ground plane of the filter to suppress the stopband responses of the filter. The number of DBRs is chosen as two in consideration of low insertion loss and small size of two filter. The center frequency of the filter to be designed is 2.35GHz and its bandwidth is 140MHz. The responses of two kinds of DBR filters (one with EBG and the other without EBG) are calculated and compared with the measurements. The experimental results are in good agreement with the calculations: The bandwidth and insertion loss of the filter with EBG structure are 3.8% and 1.7dB respectively, while those of the filter without EBG structure are 7% and 1.23dB. It is shown that the insertion loss of the filter is increased and its bandwidth is deceased due to the EBG structure. Also the stopband responses of the filters with EBG structures are shown to be much improved compared with those without EBG.

This paper presents a new configuration of dielectric bandpass filter using the comb-line filter design theory. This filter is composed of a homogeneous dielectric monoblock $(\varepsilonr=35.5)$ with two metal post and a dielectric sheet $(\varepsilonr=9.8).$ In this structure, the RF leakage is suppressed without other shield housing. For the fabricated filter, insertion loss value in the passband region was 0.9dB(Max.) and return loss value was 19dB(Min). Also, this filter has a attenuation pole in the stopband.
