Abstract :
In this work the high-pass lumped-element transmission line is shown to have a number of useful advantages over the classic low-pass line including DC isolation between sections, lower loss per section, and a much higher maximum frequency of operation, far beyond the natural self-resonant frequencies of the passive components used
