  • Abstract
    This paper presents a new design of stepped-impedance low-pass filter in microstrip technology based on the use of non-uniform sections. The simulated results show significant performance improvement as steeper slope and better harmonic suppression. This type of non-uniform low pass filter is moreover more compact than its conventional counterpart.
