Folded SIR with CSRRs for Ultra Wide Band Applications

The paper presents a maximally flat compact planar filter employing folded Stepped Impedance Resonators (SIR) and Complementary Split Ring Resonators (CSRR), for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) applications. An interdigital quarter wavelength coupled line is used for achieving the band pass characteristics. The filter has low insertion loss in its pass band and steep roll off rate and good attenuation in its lower and upper stop bands. The measured microwave characteristics of the fabricated filter show good agreement with the simulated response
