Novel EBG Structure BPF for UWB system

Abstract

This paper discuses about application of Electro Magnetic Band-gap structure(EBG) application in design of microstrip band bass filter(BPF) in ultra wide band(UWB) frequency. Here to obtain improved pass-band region and good out of band region a single Electro Magnetic Band-gap structure (EBG) cell is used. The simulation of the filter is done using advanced design system software (ADS), the obtained result is satisfactory .in addition to the performance of the filter the size of overall filter is reduced in size which can be used in many compact handheld devices.
