Abstract :
Based on the concept of Substrate Integrated Wave Guides (SIWG), a filter centered in 10GHz with 1-GHz bandwidth is modeled, simulated and fabricated using a commercial FR-4 lossy dielectric substrate. A low-cost printed circuit board manufacturing technique is employed. A set of experimental results obtained is evaluated, showing excellent agreement with simulation predictions and far than satisfactory performance.
