Abstract
A novel bandstop filter (BSF) structure is proposed and measured for wideband and compact circuit applications. The proposed BSF realizes the wide stopband (2-octave) characteristics by superposing two different photonic bandgap (PBG) structures into a coupled double-plane configuration. Only three cells of the proposed structure are enough for the measured 10 dB stopband from 4.3 to 16.2 GHz. We expect this novel BSF structure is widely used for compact and wideband circuit applications, such as compact high-efficiency power amplitiers using harmonic tuning techniques.Keywords
