Abstract
Abstract : In this paper, a proposed method to implement the image parameter filters is presented. It is based on cascading π-networks and using a proposed bisected-T m-derived matching section to the source and load impedances instead of the use of the cascaded T-networks and the classical bisected-π matching sections. The proposed method achieves the advantage of reducing the total number of the inductors in the circuit which is a great benefit for circuit implementation in the recent monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) technology. The method also finds application in broadband microwave distributed amplifiers design.
