Abstract :
A triple-made plated ceramic black based hybrid filter is designed for UMTS base station applications, fabricated and tested. It is designed using 3-D finite element method based electromagnetic simulator along with circuit model based in-house software. The simulated response of the filter matches very well with the measured response. The filter is very compact; its size is 75 mm X 36 mm X 33 mm. It has low loss, compact size, and goad spurious performance.
