However, the passband of the bandpass filter disclosed in Document 12 is approximately from 3 GHz to 5.5 GHz. Compared with the frequency band specified by the FCC, the passband is narrower and cannot cover the entire UWB area.
In addition, the design method of the bandpass filter disclosed in Document 12 is complicated and difficult to realize

Embodiment 1

[0131] A Kaiser window in which A=30 was used, where the reflectance in the frequency f range of 3.4GHz≦f≦10.3GHz was set to 1, and the reflectance in other regions was set to 0. In addition, the length of one wavelength at a frequency f = 1 GHz of the signal transmitted in the microstrip line was defined as the waveguide length, and the characteristic impedance of the system was set to 50Ω, and the design was performed. Here, the characteristic impedance must be designed to match the impedance of the system used. Generally, in circuits that handle high-frequency signals, 50Ω, 75Ω, or 300Ω, etc. are used as the impedance of the system. Preferably, the characteristic impedance Zc is 10Ω≤Zc≤300Ω. If the characteristic impedance is less than 10Ω, the loss caused by the conductor and the dielectric becomes relatively large. In addition, if the characteristic impedance is greater than 300Ω, matching with the system impedance cannot be achieved.
