A Microstrip Low-Pass Filter Design Using a Modified Radial Resonator in the Application of Aircraft Distance Measurement Equipment

In this paper, the application of microstrip technology is investigated in low-pass filters. A cascade microstrip low-pass filter with a sharp frequency response and a good cut-off bandwidth is presented using a modified radial resonator. The advantages of this proposed filter include minor losses in the transit band as well as the desired return. This filter design shows consistency when compared with the results of simulation and model performance. A comparison between the parameter values of this filter and previous structures indicates that it is desirable. The proposed filter can be used in modern communication systems such as aircraft distance measurement equipment (DME) antenna.
