Abstract

AbstractA rapid growth in 4G and 5G in wireless communication applications demand compact and reconfigurable microstrip filters structures. However, meeting these requirements comes with many challenges, namely the increased design complexity, system size, fabrication process, and cost‐effectiveness. Accordingly, the paper aims to design a reconfigurable microstrip filter in terms of its geometrical structures of compactness and its operational performances. A reconfigured compact parallel‐coupled microstrip bandpass filter is a modified Minkowski fractal geometrical shape of inverted alphabet C structure and the first iteration of Minkowski is proposed. The proposed work shows the design technique, parametric analysis, and simulated results of a compact parallel‐coupled microstrip Minkowski fractal bandpass filter for dielectric constant 4.4 and thickness 0.8 mm, operating at 5.1 GHz and bandwidth of 1.5 GHz. A good agreement between simulated results and designed values is achieved, the filter is compact with good bandwidth, less loss, and is dedicated to wireless communication applications.
