Abstract :
A novel design of compact band-pass filter with narrow-band features based on an electromagnetic resonator at 6.4GHz is presented. A study regarding the transmission and reflection coefficients of the simulated and manufactured prototype is conducted. The designed band-pass filter shows selective passband and suppression of the second harmonic, making the filter suitable to be used in a C band frequency range for radar systems and satellite/terrestrial applications.
