Abstract
An ultrawideband absorptive common-mode filter (A-CMF) with a newly developed defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed in this article. The DGS miniaturized to a subwavelength size is able to totally suppress the common-mode noise while maintaining the signal integrity of the differential mode. In addition, the reflection and radiation of the common-mode noise are negligible in the stopband. For quick design, a simplified equivalent circuit model is also proposed. This model can be employed to estimate the resistances of the lumped resistors embedded in the DGS to obtain a very wide absorption band. In the demonstrated example, the fractional bandwidth determined by a 90% absorption efficiency can achieve as large as 104% around 3.55 GHz for an A-CMF realized on a simple two-layer printed circuit board. Such a widely absorptive bandwidth is never achieved before to our knowledge. The design methodology is validated by full-wave simulation. Finally, real measurement of the design is also carried out to confirm the design and analysis. ? 1964-2012 IEEE.
