Abstract

A novel generic microstrip structure that can be used as both bandstop and bandpass filters is introduced in this article. The design steps, numerical simulations and experimentations are briefly discussed. Examples of microstrip electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) and bandpass filters are presented.
