With the development of artificial electromagnetic structures, defective grounding structures (DGS), defective microstrip structures (DMS), and electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) have been widely used in the design of microstrip filters. In this paper, a triple notches ultra wideband bandstop microstrip filter based on Archimedean spiral electromagnetic bandgap structure (ASEBG) structure is proposed. Firstly, the equivalent circuit of ASEBG is analyzed, and L and C values are extracted by using Advanced Design System (ADS). Secondly, the correctness of the lumped parameter model is verified by comparing the High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) simulation results with the measured results. Finally, the influence of ASEBG structure parameters on resonant performance is analyzed by HFSS simulation, and the filter parameters are further optimized. By coupling ASEBG structure to existing double notch microstrip filters, a triple notches ultra wideband bandstop microstrip filter is realized. This method can also be used in the design of other microstrip devices with stopband characteristics. The three bandgap center frequencies of the proposed triple notches ultra wideband bandstop microstrip filter are 3.5, 5.2, and 7.4 GHz, respectively. The corresponding maximum attenuation of the three stopbands is 33.6, 24.8, and 21.7 dB, respectively.
