Summary: | A novel MMIC transversal filter structure using multiple-coupled-line directional couplers and its design method are proposed. There is a critical drawback in fabricating MMIC transversal filters because the length of the conventional transversal filter is much longer than the width. In order to solve this structural problem, a novel transversal filter which can easily be realized in MMIC type is proposed. The usefulness of the proposed transversal filter for MMIC applications is verified by the 3D full-wave analysis. The analysis results show the characteristics of low insertion loss, improved selectivity, and little bandwidth shrinkage. |
