Band-stop filter, circular fractal-shaped stubs, defected ground plane, X-band applications摘要
In this letter, we use the fractal structures to design a novel compact band-stop filter with prominent cut-off sharpness and wide stop-band for X-band applications. By cutting five U-shaped slots on the ground plane and by inserting five Fractal- Shaped stubs in the microstrip transmission line, the proposed structure is created hence a constant and flat impedance bandwidth at the X-band can be produced. The operating frequencies of the filter can be easily controlled by changing the protruded fractal-shaped stubs dimensions, without changing the area taken by the structure. The experimental results show good agreement with simulation results and demonstrate that excellent stop-band performance could be obtained through the proposed band stop filter.
