Hypothesis

Can a hybrid bandpass filter design improve performance metrics such as size and stopband rejection?

Conclusion

The proposed hybrid bandpass filter demonstrates low insertion loss, compact size, and excellent upper-stopband rejection.

Supporting Evidence

  • The filter operates at a center frequency of 8.3 GHz with a 3 dB fractional bandwidth of 8.1%.
  • The upper-stopband rejection reaches up to 15 dB at 2.85 times the center frequency.
  • The overall size of the proposed filter is 13.5 mm × 13.0 mm.

Takeaway

This study created a small and efficient filter that helps improve wireless communication by reducing unwanted signals.

Methodology

The filter was designed, simulated, fabricated, and measured using a single-layer printed circuit board process.

Limitations

The study does not address potential long-term stability or environmental effects on filter performance.
