Abstract

This paper examines the effect of the geometrical shapes of a defected ground-plane structure (DGS) slot on performance of the Hi-Lo microstrip low-pass filter (LPF). A three-pole LPF based on an arrowhead DGS slot has 67% less length as compared to a conventional three-pole LPF. It has insertion loss of 0.5 dB and 15-dB rejection in the stophand up to three times the cutoff frequency.
