Abstract: | In this letter, we introduce a novel passive transmission line of negative refractive index (i.e., left-handedness) based
on identical symmetrical lattice type structures thus called “lattice type transmission line” (LT-TL)]. The dispersion characteristic
and the transmission response of the proposed LT-TL are analyzed. While all the other left-handed passive transmission lines
are of high pass, the present passive left-handed transmission line is of low pass. Compared with a conventional transmission
line, the LT-TL has a phase shift of 180° in the entire wide pass-band.
