In this paper, we proposed the effective serial connection methodology of PBG resonator with defect mode. We use the big difference of impedance ratio in connection region, for example dual PBG, for serial connection. This method reduces the PBG cells and is able to control the pole of bandpass filters. This result in flexibility in design of bandpass filter. Our PBG bandpass filter is modeled by using the ideal transmission line model. This model is very easy, fast, and effective for PBG structure.

In this paper, a design method of the compact narrow band filter on the microstrip board is proposed using complementary split-ring resonators(CSRRs). The design technique of this filter is based on cascading filter stages consisting of the combination of circular CSRRs, capacitive gaps between patches, and inductive grounded stubs with the meander configuration. By these means, it was possible to get the nearly symmetric frequency responses, adjustable bandwidths, compact sizes. And also excellent characteristic of the out-of-band rejection is achieved in contrast to the conventional filter design technique. The measured insertion shows good results about -4.0dB at the center frequency($f_0=1GHz$) and passband return loss is less than -9.4dB. The 3dB fractional bandwidth(FBW) is approximately 4%. The results of the frequency response measured on the fabricated band pass filter substrate show satisfactory agreement with the simulated frequency responses by the HFSS in the region of interest.

In this paper, a 18 GHz oscillator is designed with the push-push method an fabricated by semi-MMIC process, in which the second harmonic is the main output signal with the suppressed fundamental mode. In semi-MMIC process, passive components with microstrip transmission line are implemented using MMIC process on semi-insulating GaAs substrate. Then, chip types of P-HEMT, resistors, and capacitors are connected through Au wire-bonding. Also, the ground plane is inserted around the circuit and connected each other with the back-side of substrate through Au wire-bonding instead of via-hole. The semi-MMIC push-push oscillator shows the output powder of -10.5 dBm, the fundamental frequency suppression of -17.3 dBc/Hz, and the phase noise of -97.9 dBc/Hz at the offset frequency of 100 kHz.

This paper presents a new design method of the Ultra-Wide-Band BandPass Filter using the CRLH-TL(Composite Right- and Left-Handed Transmission-line) having the Metamaterials' properties. Instead of the periodic type or many cells of the CRLH-TL, only the unit cell is used to miniaturize the target component, which can not be realized by the conventional quarter guided-wavelength resonator-based filters. Particularly, the strong coupling essential to the Ultra Wide Band is enabled by the interdigital coupled lines between the grounded stubs. The proposed design scheme is validated by the electromagnetic simulation and measurement of the fabricated filter which shows the total size of 'the guided-wavelength/9.4', the 100 % fractional bandwidth for the UWB, the insertion loss of less than 1 dB and the flat group-delay.
