60 GHz Band Pass Filter: Miniaturization consideration

What is it about?

Bandpass filters are an important electronic component. It is essential to improve the electronic system performance. As the name band pass, it passes signals at a specific portion of frequencies and attenuate signal outside this band. Normal bandpass filters are designed for low insertion loss and a specific band of operation. While, on-chip bandpass filters require small size as an essential factor to avoid the cost increase.

Why is it important?

On-chip passive components such as bandpass filters presented in this manuscript are essential for a fully integrated system-on-chip solution. But, the main problem of the passive components is the size. So, we presented a possible technique for miniaturization of a bandpass filter in this manuscript​ while maintaining low insertion loss.
