Abstract :
A new low-loss dc-blocking parallel-cascaded bandpass filter is presented. The filter is much easier to use and fabricate, more compact, and simpler to design than the conventional end- or parallel-coupled line filters. The filter has a wide passband with a 2:1 voltage standing-wave ratio bandwidth of around 10% and an insertion loss of 0.5 dB at 10 GHz. Simulated results agree very well with experimental results
