Abstract
A low-cost printed planar filter circuit on alumina ceramic substrates was developed at 60GHz band. This filter is advantageous in size, cost, and connectivity to MMICs. It is especially suitable for millimeter-wave module integration, where MMICs and filters are all assembled inside one compact package. The trial filter, designed for over 3GHz wide band applications, has less than 4.0dB insertion loss and reasonable rejection performance of S21=15dB/20dB at 1.5GHz/2.0GHz offset frequency from the pass-band.
