Abstract:

Most communication system contains an RF front end which performs signal processing with RF filters. Micro strip filters are a low cost means of doing this. Micro strip filters play various roles in wireless or mobile communication systems. There is an increasing demand for newer microwave and millimetre-wave systems to meet the emerging telecommunication challenges with respect to size, performance and cost. This paper describes a compact array of triangular shaped defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed. The dimensions of proposed compact filter are about and have very high sharpness factor (0.911). A traditional single triangular DGS structure is also design, analyzed and simulated for comparison purpose. For the design and simulation, IE3D simulation tool is used.

Keywords:

Low-Pass Filter, Photonic band Gap (PBG), Defected ground structure (DGS), triangular shape and Sharpness factor.
