Abstract :
We have presented the design of a radiating filter using a methodology based on a direct synthesis of the filtering functions and taking into account the electromagnetic constraints. The first prototypes in foam technology enabled us to validate the concept and the method. We will have to find a means of metallization more powerful than silver paint in order to limit the losses in the structure.
