Reconfigurable Coplanar Waveguide (CPW) and Half-Mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide (HMSIW) Band-Stop Filters Using a Varactor-Loaded Metamaterial-Inspired Open Resonator

An open ring resonator (ORR) loaded with a varactor diode is designed and implemented in order to achieve high-performance tunable band-stop filters in planar technology with a compact size. This varactor-loaded ORR (VLORR) is versatile. It allows a shunt connection with different planar waveguide s...
