In this paper, on the basis of proposing a novel complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR) using Koch fractal curve, a bandpass filter based on such a new structure is designed To validate the designing method. Transmission characteristics and reflection characteristics of the presented filter are given by both software simulation and experiment measurement. Consistent results have confirmed the design concept and excellent performance of the new structure and indicated that the proposed filter has a low insertion loss a high selectivity and small size.
