Abstract
In this letter, a novel design for a dual-band negative group delay circuit (NGDC) is proposed. Based on the topology of a single-band reflection type NGDC, composite right/left handed λ/4 short stubs are employed to obtain a negative group delay (NGD) at two separate frequency bands simultaneously. In order to achieve a bandwidth extension, the proposed structure consists of a two-stage dual-band NGDC with different center frequencies connected in a cascade. According to the measurements performed for wide-band code division multiple access and worldwide interoperability for microwave access, an NGD of -3.0± 0.4 ns and -3.1± 0.5 ns are obtained at 2.12-2.16 GHz and 3.46-3.54 GHz, respectively.
