Abstract :
A tunable bandpass filter using a yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) disk and a coplanar-slotline structure is proposed. The filter is tunable from 0.76 to 14.5 GHz. Over this band of frequencies the maximum insertion loss was 4.9 dB and the minimum loss was 1.7 dB. The planar-type device is well suited for the microwave integrated circuit (MIC) planar technology
