Abstract:
The primary purpose of this report is more to brief to the reader with a detailed and
comprehensive study of theory, design, and result in the designing Edge coupled
micro-strip band pass filter. This filter design is operate at frequency 12.2-12.7GHz.
The approaches used to achieve this thesis are through literature review of micro-strip
filter including calculation, and computer software simulation. Micro-strip technology
is the best technique because it is can give accurate value and economical. This
technology is design to reduce the cost compared to conventional filter that had been
used before. The band pass filter has several types and design but this thesis is
focused on the edge-coupled band pass filter to determine the suitable parameters.
Ansoft designer SV2 Software is used to analyze the characteristic parameter and
determine the insertion loss and return loss of frequency response that has been used
to analyze performance quality. The band pass filter contributes to the application of
satellite downlink frequency. This thesis exposes to the evaluation process of analyze
edge-coupled micro-strip band pass filter.
