Abstract

The electromagnetic simulation of passive components for PCS systems such as miniaturized ceramic bandpass filters is presented. We have used the transmission line modelling (TLM), a general-purpose space-time discrete method, to perform the simulations. We have compared the computed scattering parameters of the filter with available measurement results. The features of the filter responses agree well.
