Abstract
In this article, a wideband bandpass filter (BPF) is designed using the comb slotted substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavities. The comb-shaped slots engraved on the SIW cavity are used to constitute a novel multiple-mode resonator (MMR) that accomplishes a wide passband of operation. Further, a Jerusalem cross defected ground structure (DGS) is introduced to miniaturize it and enhance filter performance in the pass band and stop band. The filter is fabricated on RT/Duroid 5880 having dielectric constant 2.2 and tested to prove the validity of design. The filter achieves 3 dB fractional bandwidth of 48%, return loss above 14 dB and insertion loss of 1.1 dB in the passband. Also, the proposed filter has steep selectivity and wide upper stopband with 25 dB attenuation from 16.7 to 24 GHz.
