Abstract :
A method based on the theory of inverse scattering, more specifically the layer-peeling method, is used for the design of planar microwave electromagnetic bandgap filters in microstrip technology. The method was originally used for the design of fiber Bragg gratings. To validate the method, a 4-pole Chebyshev filter was designed and constructed. The measured results are shown to agree well with the specifications.
