ABSTRACT
This Paper is an attempt to give an overview of
Microstrip Spurline Band Stop Filter. The basic
concepts and filtering characteristics of Microstrip
Spurline Band Stop Filter are introduced and the
equivalent circuit models with filter response are also
presented. Also, the main applications of Microstrip
Spurline Band Stop Filter in microwave technology
field are summarized and the evolution trends of
Microstrip Spurline Band stop Filter is given.
KEYWORDS: Band Stop Filter, Spurline
1. INTRODUCTION
High Performance, Compact size and low cost often
meet the stringent requirements of modern microwave
communication systems. There have been some new
designing such as Design of Microstrip Spurline Band
Stop Filters [1], Compact Microstrip Band Stop Filter
Using open stub & Spurline[2], Compact Band Stop
Filter using Defected Ground Sructure[3], Microstrip
Band Stop Filter using Spurline & Defected Ground
Structure[4],
Novel Compact Microstrip Interdigital Band Stop
Filter[5] and so on to enhance the whole quality and
response of the system. The conventional RLC band
stop filters suffer from a number of technical
limitations, most of which are associated with the use
of discrete inductors. These limitations include their
large size, difficulty of integration onto a single
integrated circuit, large power consumption and
susceptibility to parasitic effects in the gigahertz range.
These problems affect the electrical length of the
resonator and the position of resonator associated with
open-circuited stubs of the bandstop filter structure.
Therefore, microwave planer filters are important in
modern communication systems.

Fig.5. Configurations of filters using two open-loop
ring resonators: (a) filter only (b) filter with proposed
BSFs
Fig.5 shows the configurations of an asymmetric-fed
open loop ring band pass filter [7] with and without the
BSFs that are used to suppress the second harmonic of
the band pass filter. The dimensions of these filters are
L1= 8.7 mm, L2= 8.4 mm, L3=8.5 mm, L4=13.95
mm, L5=19.75 mm, L6=11.6 mm, G1=0.3 mm, G2=
0.5 mm, G3= 0.4 mm, and W= 0.9 mm. Fig. 6 shows
the measured insertion loss of the
band pass filter only and band pass filters with the
proposed band-stop and the open-stub filters. The
center frequency of the band-pass filter is 1.95 GHz,
and the second harmonic at 3.9 GHz is suppressed
from 8 dB without BSF to 48 dB with the BSF. An
improvement in suppression of 40 dB is achieved.

3. CONCLUSION
Here, the comparison of three different configurations
is done. The spurline band stop filter is included in
previously done work. Analysis of interdigital
capacitance as a defected ground structure shows
that it not only exhibits good band stop
characteristics, but it has tunable central frequency
that can be achieved by changing the capacitance.
Moreover, the features
of
this
microstrip
interdigital band stop filter are smaller than
those of the conventional band stop filter. Both the
above explained configurations are compared with
proposed structure.
