Abstract :
A new EBG cell has been investigated and employed to create a dual-band filter. The unique aspect of this cell is that only lumped-element behaviour defines the lower pass-band, while its distributed-element characteristics influence the upper pass-band. S-band measurements of a prototype confirm the filter functions as predicted by electromagnetic simulations.
