Description
Summary:Microwave filters are an essential part of communication systems operating in the specified frequencies range. The main challenges faced by the designers today are reduction of power loss and size of the filters. This paper is intended to develop a cavity combline bandpass filter for microwave P2P link in order to introduce it to the Malaysian market. The report attempts to find a suitable solution to the present demand in the market by offering a new design used in the field. The methodology to be used in the process of the project includes calculation of the filter parameters, designing the filter in Ansys HFSS software, simulation, designing layout of the transmission lines, fabrication, testing, and tuning. The paper also highlights the history of the microwave engineering development, and reviews the previous studies and projects of different groups to use as an example and reference in the current case. The project is the Final Year Project of a Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) Electrical & Electronics Engineering student at Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS.
