## Abstract In this paper, a direct 3D finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) approach is implemented to investigate the electromagnetic behavior of arbitrary conformal microstrip filters and spiral inductors. To this end, the frequency dependence of the scattering‐matrix parameters of these microstr

✦ Synopsis
given in Table 1. It is observed that phantoms of any of these biological tissues can be simulated by mixing carbon and graphite powder in definite proportions with PVA.
CONCLUSION
A PVA-based composite of carbon and graphite has been identified as a suitable phantom material for microwave medical imaging. The dielectric constant and conductivity of this material exhibit good matching with the available literature data on biological tissues. The high value of the absorption coefficient of the material underlies its application as microwave-absorbing material in medical imaging.

## Abstract How to extract equivalent circuit parameters from full‐wave results is becoming an increasingly important aspect of microstrip filter design. In this paper, a microstrip low‐pass filter that is made of six stubs is analyzed by a novel differential equation whose coefficients are determi
A simple design procedure is described for miniaturized microstrip bandpass filters on high-ε r substrates. Costs and design times are reduced by replacing experimental measurements with EM simulations. The procedure is confirmed through the design of a miniaturized microstrip hairpin-coupled bandpa
## Abstract A microstrip bandpass filter with a new type of capacitive‐coupled resonator is presented. The filter is designed to be smaller compared with the same type of parallel‐coupled bandpass filter. The filter is designed for a centre frequency of 2.5 GHz that lies in the S‐band frequency ran
## Abstract This article presents a design for wideband bandpass filters using a microstrip cavity coupler. The broadband nature of the cavity‐coupled designs is fully exploited for this application. Two additional circuits are introduced to improve the stopband performance of the cavity‐coupled ba
