Abstract :
A compact ultra-wideband (UWB) single-ring bandpass filter of 8GHz bandwidth with suppressed sideband and harmonics achieved by forced boundary condition and step impedance filter is proposed in this paper. EM simulator IE3D is applied in the device design and both measurement and simulated results are shown in good agreement. The group delay variation in the pass-band is measured less than 0.3ns.
