Abstract

This paper demonstrates a new Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) U-shape resonator. Based on this 3D structure, a Ka-band Substrate Integrated Wave guide band pass filter is designed. Compared with the conventional two dimensional PCB, LTCC technology achieves higher Qe factor, higher density, smaller size, and lower cost. EM simulator HFSS is employed in determining and optimizing the physical dimension of the filter. The filter's simulation results show fractional bandwidth (FBW) of3.94% centered at 34.7 GHz with insertion loss of -1.2 dB and return loss of -20 dB in the pass band. The attenuation of -30dB is obtained at 32.8 GHz and 36.8 GHz.
