Abstract :
We propose a coplanar bandpass filter with a very compact electrical size. The design comprises a cascade of a regular and a complementary multiple turn rectangular spiral resonator. This concept is especially appealing to applications, where miniaturization and compatibility with planar millimeter wave technology are key issues.
