Abstract :
A new ultra-wideband bandpass filter using a back-to-back CBCPW-to-CBCPW transition structure is presented. The filter is composed of two CBCPW-to-CBCPW transitions and a section of a CBCPW line section used as a multiple-mode resonator. Using this transition, a new ultra-wideband filter prototype was designed, fabricated and measured. Obtained results show that the proposed filter can easily cover the band from 3.1 to 10.6 GHz.
