Abstract :
A compact UWB band pass filter is proposed and simulated using meander line resonator, aiming at transmitting the signals in most of the UWB pass band of 3.1-10.6 GHz. The proposed filter consists of one low-impedance meander line section in the center and two high-impedance line sections at two sides. A good UWB band pass behavior with four transmission poles is achieved after optimization of the proposed structure.
