Abstract
A design methodology of an interdigital hairpin filter based on a full-wave model of coupled slots is developed and discussed. It is applied to design a five-pole bandpass filter centered at 1.7 GHz with 1.75% relative bandwidth. A low level of in-band insertion loss is achieved using high-temperature superconductor electrodes. Experimental data are presented and compared with the simulated response. A model of coupled slots embedded in a layered lossy media is developed on the basis of the spectral-domain approach. The multiport admittance (impedance) matrix of the coupled slots is formulated using the E-H duality principle. It is successfully applied in the design of the filter.
