Filter is an important part in telecommunication system including in radar system. To get the better performance in selecting the signal, a ftlter must have a good Q-Factor. In this paper, an investigation of a ftlter design for synthetic radar has been successfully done. This ftlter has been designed to work at x-band using square loop resonator (SLR). A Defected Ground Structure (DGS) has been implemented to this work to increase the Q-factor of the ftlter. The result of measurement getting that the center frequency at 9.51 GHz with the bandwidth 610 MHz and PCB size of this ftlter is 22 mm x 16 mm.
