A Compact Wide Stop-band Koch-shaped Electromagnetic Bandgap Microstrip Low Pass Filter

A novel compact wide stop-band electromagnetic bandgap microstrip low pass filter using a Koch shape is presented. The Koch-shaped configuration of the low pass filter not only can reduce the size of the structure, but can also widen the stop-band widt...
The practical application of an electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structure usually presents difficulties in accommodating its physical size, since the period of an EBG lattice has to be a half-wavelength at the stop-band center frequency. Simple increments of the EBG cells and the wave impedance difference will result in inherent...
