Abstract
Abstract A stripline split-ring resonator bandpass filter comprises first and second conducting layers and first and second substrates connected to each other between the conducting layers. A first stripline ring resonator is located on the top side of the second nonconducting substrate and is coupled to the input port of the BPF. The first stripline ring resonator has a gap located therein. A second stripline ring resonator is also located on the top side of the second nonconducting substrate between the first stripline ring resonator and the output port of the BPF. The second stripline ring resonator has a gap located therein. The first substrate has at least two slots therein to allow lumped capacitors to be placed in the gaps in the first and second ring resonators.
