Abstract :
This paper introduces research history of multi-layered composite right/left-handed transmission lines (ML CRLH TLs) and demonstrates two types of super-compact ultra-wideband (UWB) band pass filters configured by LTCC-based ML CRLH TL architecture. UWB response (2.7-10.6 GHz in simulation and 2.4-10.6 GHz in experiment) is realized with extremely small overall dimensions of 1.5 × 1.5 × 0.95 mm3.
