In this paper, a novel electrical tunable bandstop filter based on coplanar waveguide (CPW) loaded with split ring resonators (SRRs) is proposed. The unit cell of the bandstop filter is formed by etching single SRR on the CPW back substrate side, and the SRRs can be excited by the CPW slot’s magnetic field. Lumped equivalent circuit models are developed to analyze the frequency responses, and it shows that by loading the common cathode varactor diodes at the split region of the SRR outer ring, the resonant frequency of the bandstop filter can be electronically adjusted by tuning the reverse voltage of the varactor diodes. The prototype with overall size of 26.6 mm ? 50 mm ? 0.508 mm was designed and fabricated to validate the proposed structure. The measured tunable resonant frequency of the fabricated bandstop filter is from 2.19 GHz to 2.31 GHz while a reverse bias voltage is varying from 0 V to 30 V. It also shows that the -10 dB bandwidth is less than 45 MHz.
