## Abstract A compact ultra‐wideband bandpass filter is presented. The proposed UWB filter consists of a couple of folded parallel lines and a low‐pass filter based on defected ground structure. Good bandpass performance and wide rejection characteristics can be achieved by this new structure. One

Abstract
In this paper, coplanar waveguide (CPW) bandpass filters based on capacitively coupled resonators and periodic perturbation in slot width are proposed. Due to periodicity, the structure behaves as a reflector in a certain frequency band and harmonic suppression is achieved. Slot‐width modulation has been implemented through the approximation of the ground planes to the conductor strip at periodic locations. The equivalent capacitance of the line is thus enhanced, with the result of a significant slow‐wave effect. In comparison to a conventional design, the fabricated prototype is 1.4 times smaller and exhibits significant rejection of frequency parasitics. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
