A Review on Design of Multiband Bandpass Filter Using Different DGS Structures to Enhance the Performance

Abstract

In this paper, we discussed about the work done by researchers for the enhancement of performance of a multiband BPF by introducing different defected ground structure (DGS) geometries. A DGS structure on a conventional inductively coupled band pass filter is used to miniaturize the resonator. By introducing a DGS on the transversal dimension of the CPW, it enhances filter performance. The DGS cell also transforms a single band to a multiband BPF by using this structure. The design technique of the filters with the DGS can be explained at very high frequencies in GHz ranges and give very accurate simulated and measured results.
