Abstract :
The comments by Ahn are correct. The Y-parameters in should be those of an open-ended coupled line. However, it is a simple mistake. All subsequent parameters, including the group delays and of the conventional coupled line of are derived from the Y-parameters of the open-ended coupled line. We believe that the ideal simulation results in for various filters miniaturized by the method in verify the proposed bandwidth compensation technique mathematically.
