Compact microstrip band stop filter using SRR and CSSR: design, simulation and results
conference contribution
posted on 2012-06-29, 08:24 authored by M.K.T. Al-Nuaimi, William WhittowWilliam WhittowSize miniaturization of microwave filters is highly
desirable in the today’s rapid changing communications world.
Split ring resonators (SRRs) have attracted much interest in
recent years as key constituent particles for the design of
effective media with negative magnetic permeability (μeff < 0) or
left-handed materials (LHM). This paper demonstrates the
potential of the sub-wavelength (i.e. electrically very small) split
ring resonators and complementary split ring resonators
(CSRRs) inclusions to build compact microstrip band stop filters
to reject the unwanted spurious bands in microwave regime. It
is simple and compatible with MMIC and PCB technology.
Moreover, the magnetic coupling between the SRRs and the
microstrip line is also investigated. Numerical calculations of the
scattering parameters (S-parameters) are performed using the
Method of Moments (MoM)-based electromagnetic solver of
Ansoft DesignerTM software.
