Abstract
A bandpass filter is constructed by loading a left-handed metamaterial transmission line with an additional shunt capacitor. The shunt capacitor provides more freedom to control the passband characteristics of the resulting metamaterial line. A bandpass filter is designed with a centre frequency that is tunable from 0.45 to 0.65 GHz.
