Abstract
A wideband bandpass filter using unpowered, packaged HEMT amplifiers is proposed and implemented. The key idea is to utilize very small parasitic capacitances of the unpowered HEMT as a part of the feedback loop connecting LC resonators. At the input power of β10 dBm, the 3 dB bandwidth of the fabricated bandpass filter is 93.6% of the center frequency (1.536 GHz). Furthermore, our filter does not show appreciable spurious up to 12 GHz. These internal capacitances of the HEMT extracted from the equivalent circuit modeling are shown to be in the range of 10β500 fF. Β© 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this letter, a compact ultraβwideband (UWB) bandpass filter (BPF) is presented with improved upper stopband performance using six defected ground structures (DGS).The proposed BPF is composed of seven DGSs which are positioned under the input and output microstrip line and coupled do
