Abstract

Quasi elliptic filters are of great demand in the present day communication systems. Coupling matrix analysis of pseudo-elliptic low pass filter using conventional microstrip line is presented in this paper. The conventional microstrip line has no non-zero cut off frequency. The conventional microstrip line is transformed into a pseudo-elliptic low-pass filter using the concept of slow wave. The slow wave microstrip line exhibits pseudo-elliptic low-pass behavior with transmission zeros at finite frequencies unlike the conventional Butterworth and Chebyshev filters. The coupling matrix of the slow wave microstrip line is arrived at by using the generalized Chebyshev functions. The coupling matrix of the slow wave line is validated using the MATLAB tool box. Finally, the prototype is fabricated and the performance is measured.
