Abstract

Aggressive space mapping (ASM) is a common filter simulation and debugging method. It plays an important role in the field of microwave device design. This paper introduces ASM and presents the design and fabrication of a compact fifth-order microstrip interdigital filter with a center frequency of 2.5 GHz and a relative bandwidth of 10% using ASM. The filter used a double-layer silicon substrate structure and stepped impedance resonators (SIRs) and was optimized by ASM. After five iterations, the filter achieved the design specification, which greatly improves the efficiency of the filter design compared with the traditional method. It was fabricated on high-resistance silicon wafers by micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMSs) technology, and the final size of the chip is 9.5 mm × 7.6 mm × 0.8 mm. The measurement results show that the characteristics of the filter are similar to the simulation results, which also shows the efficiency and precision of the ASM algorithm.
