Abstract :
This paper deals with the realization of a resonator-based planar passive filter which losses are compensated for by active circuits simulating negative resistances. Most important characteristics of this filter are high selectivity (bandwidth of this filter is 26.7 MHz around 14.11 GHz) and a low power consumption (30.7mW).
