Abstract :
A HTSC microstrip corner-cut patch filter is investigated when the microstrip feed line is constructed from HTSC and non-HTSC materials. The nonlinear effects of HTSC material on harmonic generation, insertion loss and reflection coefficient are presented for different input power levels.
