Investigation of Dual-Mode Microstrip Bandpass Filter Based on Sir Technique
(Public Library Science, 2016) Mezaal, Yaqeen S.; Ali, Jawad K.; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
In this paper, a new bandpass filter design has been presented using simple topology of stepped impedance square loop resonator. The proposed bandpass filter has been simulated and fabricated using a substrate with an insulation constant of 10.8, thickness of 1.27mm and loss tangent of 0.0023 at center frequency of 5.8 GHz. The simulation results have been evaluated using Sonnet simulator that is extensively adopted in microwave analysis and implementation. The output frequency results demonstrated that the proposed filter has high-quality frequency responses in addition to isolated second harmonic frequency. Besides, this filter has very small surface area and perceptible narrow band response features that represent the conditions of recent wireless communication systems. Various filter specifications have been compared with different magnitudes of perturbation element dimension. Furthermore, phase scattering response and current intensity distribution of the proposed filter have been discussed. The simulated and experimental results are well-matched. Lastly, the features of the proposed filter have been compared with other designed microstrip filters in the literature.

(Public Library Science, 2016) Mezaal, Yaqeen S.; Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; 7688; 06.02. Elektronik ve Haberleşme Mühendisliği; 06. Mühendislik Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
A compact dual-mode microstrip bandpass filter using geometrical slot is presented in this paper. The adopted geometrical slot is based on first iteration of Cantor square fractal curve. This filter has the benefits of possessing narrower and sharper frequency responses as compared to microstrip filters that use single mode resonators and traditional dual-mode square patch resonators. The filter has been modeled and demonstrated by Microwave Office EM simulator designed at a resonant frequency of 2 GHz using a substrate of epsilon(r) = 10.8 and thickness of h = 1.27 mm. The output simulated results of the proposed filter exhibit 22 dB return loss, 0.1678 dB insertion loss and 12 MHz bandwidth in the passband region. In addition to the narrow band gained, miniaturization properties as well as weakened spurious frequency responses and blocked second harmonic frequency in out of band regions have been acquired. Filter parameters including insertion loss, return loss, bandwidth, coupling coefficient and external quality factor have been compared with different values of perturbation dimension (d). Also, a full comparative study of this filter as compared with traditional square patch filter has been considered.

Dual band dual mode chebychev microstrip bandpass filter designs are introduced for first time in this paper. The proposed filter designs are based on the use of dual mode square slotted patch microstrip resonator. These filter structures are fractally generated using Sierpinski fractal curve geometry applied to the conventional square microstrip patch from 1st to 2nd iteration levels where the first band designed at fundamental frequencies (5.475, 5.45 and 5.4) GHz for each iteration while the second band(8.925, 9.15, 9.05) GHz for each iteration. These filters have been designed using a substrate with a dielectric constant of 10.8 and thickness of 1.27mm. The performance of filter structures, based on resonators has been evaluated using a full-wave based electromagnetic simulator Sonnet software package. Performance simulation results show that these filter structures are compact in addition to good frequency responses and narrow bands gained.

(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014) Eyyuboglu, Halil T.; Ali, Jawad K.; Mezaal, Yaqeen S.; 7688; 06.02. Elektronik ve Haberleşme Mühendisliği; 06. Mühendislik Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
The proposed microstrip bandpass filters in this paper have compact sizes and narrow band responses which are the requirements of modern wireless communication circuits. These filters are constructed from dual-edge coupled resonators; each resonator is based on applying step impedance resonator generator on first and second iteration of Hilbert fractal resonators on each segment of each iteration level. They have been designed for the industrial, scientific, and medical band (ISM) band applications at a centre frequency of 2.4 GHz using a substrate with a dielectric coefficient of 9.6 and thickness of 0.508 mm. The performance of bandpass filters has been analysed using a method of moments (MoM) based on software package, Microwave Office 2009, from Advanced Wave Research Inc., which is widely adopted in microwave research and industry. Simulation responses show that these filters possess good frequency response characteristics with second harmonics suppression. Moreover, these filters showed noticeable miniaturization which is an important feature for many communication applications. The simulated and measured results are in good agreement.

A New Narrow Band Dual-Mode Microstrip Slotted Patch Bandpass Filter Design Based on Fractal Geometry
(Ieee, 2012) Eyyuboğlu, Halil Tanyer; Mezaal, Yaqeen S.; Eyyuboglu, Halil Tanyer; 7688; Elektronik ve Haberleşme Mühendisliği; 06.02. Elektronik ve Haberleşme Mühendisliği; 06. Mühendislik Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
A narrowband, compact, and easily fabricated microstrip bandpass filter design is introduced in this paper as a candidate for use in modern wireless systems. The proposed filter design is based on the use of dual-mode (two pole) square slotted microstrip resonator. This microstrip bandpass filter has the advantages of possessing much narrower and sharper performance responses than those of the single mode resonator and conventional square patch filter. The proposed microstrip filter structure is fractally generated using Sierpinski fractal curve geometry applied to the conventional square microstrip patch. Filter structures resulting from the successive iterations in the fractal generation process show a considerably low insertion loss, and sharper response of about 1% fractional bandwidth as compared with the conventional microstrip square patch filter of 3% fractional bandwidth designed at the same frequency using the same substrate material. The performance of filter structures, based on dual-mode resonators up to the third iterations, has been evaluated using a full-wave based electromagnetic simulator Sonnet software package. Performance simulation results show that these filter structures offer narrower fractional bandwidth percentages as compared with other types of non- fractalized filter structures.

Otp Encryption Enhancement Based on Logical Operations
(Ieee, 2016) Mezaal, Yaqeen S.; Hammood, Dalal A.; Ali, Mohammed H.; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
With continuous development of hacking technologies, it is necessary to provide users with a protected background that secures their resources against unlawful access by enforcing control mechanisms. To neutralize such these threats, the enhanced one time pad (OTP) technique has been introduced. Accordingly, to encrypt text, the key is combined with the message. The key length has to have a same length of the message. In this paper, a new method to enhance OTP data encryption using AND and XOR functions has been adopted. Firstly, message and original key are combined by logical AND operation, then the new text will be XORed with a key again to produce more complicated cipher.

This paper presents new Wide Bandpass Filter (WBPF) and Narrow Bandstop Filter (NBSF) incorporating two microstrip resonators, each resonator is based on 2nd iteration of Hilbert fractal geometry. The type of filter as pass or reject band has been adjusted by coupling gap parameter (d) between Hilbert resonators using a substrate with a dielectric constant of 10.8 and a thickness of 1.27 mm. Numerical simulation results as well as a parametric study of d parameter on filter type and frequency responses are presented and studied. WBPF has designed at resonant frequencies of 2 and 2.2 GHz with a bandwidth of 0.52 GHz, -28 dB return loss and -0.125 dB insertion loss while NBSF has designed for electrical specifications of 2.37 GHz center frequency, 20 MHz rejection bandwidth, -0.1873 dB return loss and 13.746 dB insertion loss. The proposed technique offers a new alternative to construct low-cost high-performance filter devices, suitable for a wide range of wireless communication systems.
