Labyrinth double split open loop resonator based bandpass filter design for S, C and X-band application

Nested circular shaped Labyrinth double split open loop resonators (OLRs) are introduced in this article to design a triple bandpass filter for 3.01 GHz, 7.39 GHz and 12.88 GHz applications. A Rogers RT-5880 is used as a substrate to design the proposed passband filter which has a succinct structure where the attainment of the resonator is explored both integrally and experimentally. The same structure is designed on both sides of the substrate and an analysis is made on the current distribution. Based on the proposed resonator, a bandpass Biter is designed and fabricated to justify the perception focusing on 3.01 GHz, 7.39 GHz and 12.88 GHz. It has also been observed by the Nicolson-Ross-Weir approach at the filtering frequencies. The effective electromagnetic parameters retrieved from the simulation of the S-parameters imply that the OLR metamaterial filter shows negative refraction bands. Having an auspicious design and double negative characteristics, this structure is suitable for triple passband filters, particularly for S, C and X-band applications.
