<p>A novel and compact multi-band stop filter using two different structures of circular DGS and circular DGS loaded with O-DGS unit, has good selectivity and  wide upper pass band performance  with good rejection based on defected ground structure (DGS) integrating a circular ring  resonator to suppress undesired spurious bands frequency or harmonics in radio frequency and microwave circuits is proposed. An equivalent circuit model has been derived for the both structures of circular DGS and circular DGS loaded. The presented filter has a compact size because the circular ring resonator is integrated in DGS, the both of them are etching in the ground plane. The proposed filter presents an optimization method for generating multi-band characteristics without using a periodic cells or other complicate topology. The simulated results by ADS Agilent are presented and compared with the results simulated by two others software: CST and HFSS. Good agreement between the three simulated results is observed.</p>

The paper presents a novel very compact CPW bandstop filter. The designed structure consists of one unit of new Z-DGS resonator, placed on top layer of ground plane between the input and output this structure, which is excited by 50-ohm coplanar line. The designed filter can be used in X-Band applications as the band stop can be shifted to any other desired frequency by tuning the length of the Z-DGS. The proposed filter topology has as benefits good performances in terms of wide stop-band rejection, low insertion loss, high return loss, simple design and more small size (17.908×10 mm 2 ) compared to other previous works those reported in literature. The stop-band width is from 3.96 GHz to 6.21 GHz, exhibits a 22.25-dB rejection bandwidth of 45% with high selectivity characteristic at the center frequency of 5.05 GHz.

In this paper, we introduce a new periodic structure for CPW of a low pass filter based on the DGS technique with triangle slot cell forme. The proposed structure is a minuature low pass filter that exhibits low insertion loss in the passband, simple fabrication, and easy to integrate with microwave planar circuits.A Lowpass filter (LPF) has been designed with flat response at a selected frequency by cascading three DGS cells.
