Radar has been widely used in many fields, such as telecommunication, military applications, and navigation. The filter is one of the most important parts of a radar system, in which it selects the necessary frequency and blocks others. This paper presents a novel yet simple filter design for S-band radar in the frequency range of 2.9 to 3.1 GHz. The center frequency of the filter was designed at 3 GHz with a bandwidth of 200 MHz, insertion loss larger than -3 dB and return loss less than -20 dB. Fifth order microstrip hairpin bandpass filter (BPF) was designed and implemented on Rogers 4350B substrate which has a dielectric relative constant value of (εr)= 3.48 and substrate thickness of (h) =1.524 mm. One element of the square groove was added as Defected Ground Structure (DGS) which can decrease the filter size, reduce harmonization, and increase return loss. Two scenarios were used in the measurement, i.e. with and without enclosed aluminum casing. Results showed that BPF without casing obtained the insertion loss of -1.748 dB at 2.785 GHz and return loss of -21.257 dB in the frequency range between 2.785 to 2.932 GHz. On the other hand, BPF with casing shows a better performance, in which it obtained the insertion loss of -1.643 dB at 2.921 GHz and return loss of -19.529 in the frequency range between 2.820 to 3.021 GHz. Although there is small displacement of frequency and response value between the simulation and implementation, our BPF has the ability to work on S-band radar with a frequency range of 2 to 4 GHz.

Filter is an important part in telecommunication system including in radar system. To get the better performance in selecting the signal, a ftlter must have a good Q-Factor. In this paper, an investigation of a ftlter design for synthetic radar has been successfully done. This ftlter has been designed to work at x-band using square loop resonator (SLR). A Defected Ground Structure (DGS) has been implemented to this work to increase the Q-factor of the ftlter. The result of measurement getting that the center frequency at 9.51 GHz with the bandwidth 610 MHz and PCB size of this ftlter is 22 mm x 16 mm.

This paper presents a miniaturized bandpass filter, which uses half mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) structure with embedded step impedance structure (SIS). By embedding the stepped impedance structure into the top metal of the waveguide cavity, the center frequency can be quickly shifted to a lower frequency. The operating center frequency of the proposed bandpass filter (BPF) using HMSIW resonators with embedded SIS is tunable as functions of the parameters of the SIS. The design curve is provided. A filter example of the center frequency of the filter at 3.5 GHz is fabricated and measured, having the insertion loss |S21| less than 3 dB, and the return loss |S11| greater than 10 dB. The transmission zeros are located at 2.95 GHz and 3.95 GHz on both sides of the passband, both of which are lower than 30 dB. The simulation result and the measured response conform to the proposed design concept. The proposed HMSIW filter design is in line with the current 5G communication trend.


This paper presents design and analytical model for Sharp Skirt Dual-Mode Bandpass Filter for RF receivers. Proposed filter is designed using open stub loaded H shaped resonator. Based on analytical model insertion loss S21 and return loss S11 for proposed filter are demonstrated. Inductive Overlaying plate is proposed to control upper passband edge of proposed filter to improve frequency selectivity with fixed center frequency. The proposed filter has sharp frequency selective range from 5.1GHz to 9.2GHz. With overlay plate, frequency selective range is tuned to 5.1GHz-8.6GHz. Without overlaying plate the proposed filter has return loss greater than 10dB and insertion loss of 0.7dB. Lower and upper passband edges are at 5.1GHz and 9.2GHz with attenuation level of 52dB and 54dB respectively. With overlaying plate, the filter has same S 11 and S 21 parameters, but upper passband edge is shifted from 9.2GHz to 8.6GHz

A wide-stopband bandpass-filtering power divider with high-frequency selectivity has been proposed in this paper. The input and output feeding lines and eight 1/4 wavelength resonators are used to realize the signal transmission. In order to obtain good frequency selectivity, source-load coupling transmission path is used to generate transmission zeros near the passband. A four-way power divider with bandpass-filtering response and high-frequency selectivity is designed, fabricated, and measured. The measured results agree with the simulated ones closely in the desirable frequency range. The measured center frequency of the power divider is 2.38 GHz with input return loss of 31.2 dB, while the measured insertion loss is about 1 dB (not including ideal 6 dB four-way power dividing insertion loss). Moreover, the measured 3-dB bandwidth is 12% and the measured stopband attenuation is >15 dB from 2.59 to 7.7 GHz. In addition, two transmission zeros of 1.9 and 2.8 GHz are located near the passband. The measured output isolations are all >15.7 dB.

This research focuses a new microstrip twin-interdigital type bandpass filter based on stepped impedance resonator (SIR) structure. The proposed structure consists of two slightly different interdigital capacitances within a single SIR resonator that behaves as a bandpass filter (BPF) of center frequency 4.3 GHz with 700 MHz bandwidth at 3 dB pass band. This design is not only subjected to size reduction, but also low pass-band insertion loss and high return loss as well. The Sonnet software tool has been used to design and simulate the microstrip BPF. The fabricated BPF was measured using the Agilent 8510C vector network analyzer (VNA) and achieved the insertion loss of 0.5 dB and the return loss of 26 dB. The measured results were compared with those simulated results which were very close to each other. The fabricated BPF can be used for Cband Applications.

The design proposed and fabricated in this paper is a slotted wide-band rectenna with the inclusion of Defected Ground Structure (DGS) which can harvest RF energy in the frequency range of 5.336–6.194[Formula: see text]GHz with a center frequency of 5.8[Formula: see text]GHz. For the development of antenna, FR4 substrate having a dielectric permittivity of 4.3 has been adopted. Two parallel slots on the patch are incorporated on either side of the feed line to obtain the wide-band structure. Dumbbell-shaped DGS is also incorporated exactly underneath the feed line to increase the gain of the antenna. HSMS-285C Schottky diode has been used for the implementation of the rectifier circuit and a Greinacher voltage doubler has been chosen. ADS design software has been used for rectifier simulation and CST has been used for the designing of the antenna. Current behavior on the patch can be investigated to explore the wide-band mechanism. The antenna operates in the frequency range of 5.336–6.194[Formula: see text]GHz and with VSWR less than 2, which corresponds to 16.07% impedance bandwidth. The antenna achieves a gain of 6.189[Formula: see text]dB and a directivity of 8.776[Formula: see text]dBi. The conversion efficiency of the rectifier was optimized to 75% at 5.8[Formula: see text]GHz. The proposed design gave an output of 3.2[Formula: see text]V which can be used under numerous energy harvesting and wireless power transmission applications.

Reconfigurable ring filter based on single-side-access ring topology is presented. Using capacitive tuning elements, the electrical length of the ring can be manipulated to shift the nominal center frequency to a desired position. A synthesis is developed to determine the values of the capacitive elements. To show the advantage of the synthesis, it is applied to the reconfigurable filter design using RF lumped capacitors. The concept is further explored by introducing varactor-diodes to continuously tune the center frequency of the ring filter. For demonstration, two prototypes of reconfigurable ring filters are realized using microstrip technology, simulated, and measured to validate the proposed concept. The reconfigured filter using lumped elements is successfully reconfigured from 2 GHz to 984.4 MHz and miniaturized by 71% compared to the filter directly designed at the same reconfigured frequency, while, for the filter using varactor-diodes, the frequency is chosen from 1.10 GHz to 1.38 GHz spreading over 280 MHz frequency range. Both designs are found to be compact with acceptable insertion loss and high selectivity.
