Abstract :
Wideband bandstop filters that are employed as pseudo-lowpass filters with very high rates of cutoff are difficult to realize as planar structures. In this paper, the performance of a Pseudo-Elliptic wideband bandstop filter that employs harmonic stubs and unit elements, is described. It is shown that a performance comparable to that of a Cauer filter can be obtained.
