Abstract

A new defected ground structure (DGS) consisting of two square ring slots connects with a rectangular ring slot by two thin transverse slots under a microstrip line is proposed. In the frequency characteristics of proposed unit pattern, an attenuation zero is observed close to the attenuation pole. As a result, better transition sharpness, lower passband insertion loss and broader stopband are observed compares to dumbbell DGS. An equivalent lumped L-C network is proposed to model the introduced DGS unit and corresponding L-C parameters are extracted. Insertion loss is reduced by alternative transmission line on the top plane of the DGS unit. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J RF and Microwave CAE, 2010.
