Abstract In this paper, a compact microstrip lowpass filter (LPF) is designed, analyzed, simulated, and tested. The proposed design that consists of a basic part in the central section of the structure and two parts of suppression of harmonics that are inserted in the first and last sections of the basic part, have wide-stop band, high suppression factor (−38 dB attenuation level from 2.4 GHz up to 27.4 GHz), low normalized size and sharp roll-off. The proposed LPF has a −3 dB cut-off frequency of 2.4 GHz, a wide stopband bandwidth around 11th harmonic suppression and an insertion loss less than 0.1 dB at passband. This filter has been fabricated and tested and good agreement is observed between the simulated and measured results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
