Abstract :
An ultra-wide stopband low-pass filter by using non-linear transmission line has been proposed and demonstrated in this paper. By applying AGA, performance of a default tapered microstrip filter, improved significantly. This method can be used for optimization and getting the best results from any kind of tapered microstrip structures.
