“…From literatures, defected ground structure (DGS) is used in RF and microwave circuit designs such as antennas [20], [21], filters [22], [23], power amplifiers [24] and power dividers [25]. The use of the DGS in these circuits has different purposes, such as harmonics or frequency suppression [20], [22], [23], [25], wideband performance [21], circuit miniaturization [22], [23], [25] and load matching network [24]. Therefore, in this paper, a DGS is proposed for the reconfigurable bandstop to allpass filter for mm-wave communications such as 5G technology in the 26 or 28 GHz band (K-band).…”
