In this paper, a microstrip diplexer composed of two similar resonators is designed. The proposed resonator is consisting of four microstrip cells, which are connected to a coupled lines structure. In order to select a suitable geometric structure, first, all cells are assumed as undefined structures where there is a lack of basic information about their geometry and dimensions. Then, an equivalent LC circuit of the coupled lines is introduced and analyzed to estimate the general structure of the resonator respect to a requested resonance frequency. The proposed diplexer is designed to operate at 2.36 and 4 GHz for wireless applications. The insertion losses (S21 and S31) are decreased significantly at the resonance frequencies, so that they are 0.2 and 0.4 dB at 2.36 and 4 GHz, respectively. The designed diplexer is fabricated and measured and the measurement results are in a good agreement with the simulations.

A novel ultra-wideband Microstrip bandpass filter using Radial Stub Loaded Resonator (RSLR) and interdigital coupled Lines is presented in this paper. The RSLR and decagonal patch form a resonator named M to create tuneable multiple notches in the passband for the suppression of Wireless Local Area Network systems’ interference. To realize sharp roll-off, two adjustable transmission nulls are located at the lower and upper frequencies out of the passband. Even and odd-mode analysis is presented to calculate modal resonance frequencies contributing to create the ultra-wide passband. Bessel function is employed to estimate the input impedance of the radial stub which is used in formulation of even and odd mode admittances. Simulated and measured results show a passband from 3.4 to 12 GHz (135% bandwidth around 6.39 GHz) with a rejection notch at 4.99 GHz is achieved with return losses better than 14 and 12 dB in the first and second passbands, respectively. The insertion loss is lower than 0.9 dB in the 90% of passband and rejection level is greater than 19 dB from 12.25 to 17.45 GHz.

AbstractIn this paper, a tuned metamaterial (MTM) consisting of a symmetric split ring resonator is presented that exhibits epsilon negative (ENG), near zero permeability and refractive index properties for multiband microwave applications. The proposed metamaterial is constituted on a Rogers (RT-5880) substrate with 1.57 mm thickness and the electrical dimension of 0.14λ × 0.14λ, where wavelength, λ is calculated at 4.2 GHz. The symmetric resonating patch is subdivided into four equal and similar quartiles with two interconnecting split rings in each quartile. The quartiles are connected at the center of the substrate with a square metal strip with which four tuning metal strips are attached. These tuning metal strips are acted as spacers between four quartiles of the resonator patch. Numerical simulation of the proposed design is executed in CST microwave studio. The proposed MTM provides four resonances of transmission coefficient (S21) at 4.20 GHz, 10.14 GHz, 13.15 GHz, and 17.1 GHz covering C, X and Ku bands with negative permittivity, near zero permeability and refractive index. The calculated effective medium ratio (EMR) is 7.14 at 4.2 GHz indicates its compactness. The resonance frequencies are selective in nature which can be easily tuned by varying the length of the tuning metal stubs. The equivalent circuit of the proposed MTM is modelled in Advanced Design Software (ADS) that exhibits a similar S21 compared with CST simulation. Surface current, electric and magnetic fields are analyzed to explain the frequency tuning property and other performances of the MTM. Compact size, ENG with near zero permeability and refractive index along with frequency selectivity through tuning provides flexibility for frequency selective applications of this MTM in wireless communications.
