Filter is realized by microstrip technology. The article presents two types of microwave filters. The first type is a band-pass filter; the second one is a low-pass filter. It is very difficult to achieve a low filter insertion loss in the passband, while maintaining a sufficient spurious signal suppression in the restraint band. Finally the low pass filter was chosen for implementation. The implemented filter insertion loss is below 0.3 dB and the restraint band attenuation is above the 35 dB. Since the resonant elements are small, filter dimensions are compact. Simulations results of the both filters are presented. In the case of the low-pass filter the simulated and experimentally verified parameters are compared.","PeriodicalId":372048,"journal":{"name":"2013 Conference on Microwave Techniques (COMITE)","volume":"39 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131652799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The parametric study is performed to investigate the characteristic of microstrip patch antenna with double meandered slots compared to the same microstrip patch antenna with triple meandered slots. Microstrip patch antenna with dual meander slot can achieve return loss until -24.54dB. However the gain of the antenna, 1.46 dBi is lower than microstrip patch antenna with triple meander slot which is 4.28 dBi. Other antenna parameters are also investigated such as bandwidth, radiation patterns and directivity have been observed and simulated.
