Coupling Capacitors to Gaps
Hello Everybody
I have designed a band stop filter with shunt capacitivley coupled L/C resonators, I have then converted those resonators to open circuit stubs and finally converted the whole circuit to microstrip lines. I am now stuck for weeks trying to convert the coupling capacitors to microstrip gaps and I cannot find any way to do that.
What I Know:
Center Frequency which is 2GHz
The value of the capacitor
All the information of the microstrip
I am using Microwave Office for my simulations. The components I use are the MLIN for the series line, MLOC for the open circuit stub and MGAP for the gap I want to calculate.
If somebody knows and can help me solve this problem please contact me!
Than You
