Abstract: A super-compact ultra-wideband (UWB) microstrip band-pass filter (BPF) with triple-notched bands and wide stopband is proposed in this paper. The super-compactness of the proposed filter is achieved by integrating the modified SCRLH-TL UWB-BPF and backbone-shaped defected ground structure (DGS). The equivalent LC circuit models of the DGS and the modified SCRLH-TL UWB-BPF with the DGS are analyzed to validate their numerical simulation results. To introduce the triple notched-bands to mitigate the interference the two triple-mode SIRs are designed and loaded on the modified UWB-BPF without increasing the circuit size. The proposed filter was fabricated by using a conventional PCB process with the substrate of FR4. The measured 3-dB passband ranges from 2.8 through 10.2 GHz with the fractional bandwidth (FBW) of about 114%. The triple-notched bands with attenuation of more than 15 dB are measured at 4.4, 5.3 and 8.2 GHz, respectively. The filter exhibits a high selectivity with steep skirt property and has a wide upper stopband with an out-of-band rejection of −10 dB at 11.8−20 GHz. Its total dimension, including the rectangular substrate with feed lines, occupies only 16mm × 8 mm.
