Introduction In RF, wideband has always been a dynamic and context-dependent term. Its definition evolves alongside advancements in technology and its applications. In electronic warfare (EW) systems, wideband capabilities are indispensable. They enable operations across an extensive range of frequencies and bandwidths (Figure 1) and facilitate quicker, more effective responses to modern threats. Key EW applications such as searching, tracking, targeting, and communications rely heavily on wideband functionality to cover significant portions of the RF spectrum. As the complexity and scope of applications expand, managing a broader range of frequencies becomes increasingly critical. In this context, advancements in RF filter…
