## Abstract The use of defected ground structures (DGSs) is being intensively explored by microwave filter designers. DGSs are one possible implementation of a 1D photonic band gap (1DโPBG), in which some defect structures are patterned on the ground plane of a microstrip circuit. In this paper, th

Abstract
The fibre optic transmission systems require a bandwidth of about 25 THz in telecommunications networks, for which it is necessary to resort to dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems. These systems need optical filters to broadcast selectively or not in a given wavelength band.
A new very promising technology for these applications is the photonic crystals with forbidden bandgap (photonic bandgap (PBG)).
In this paper, we propose a model of PBG devices to design DWDM filters on PBG materials. Copyright ยฉ 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
