Abstract

ABSTRACT A compact filtering antenna with multi-adjustable radiation nulls is designed. Initially, a conventional aperture-coupled antenna is crafted by fine-tuning positions of the gap and radiation patch, achieving a radiation null. Additionally, an aperture-coupled filtering antenna is created by cascading a resonator with a microstrip feedline. Subsequently, the integration of the aperture-coupled antenna and the filtering antenna results in a dual-slot aperture cross-coupling filtering antenna, with two radiation nulls at both ends of the passband. Finally, a pair of slot lines is etched on the radiation patch, introducing an extra radiation null to enhance selectivity further. The measured results show that the proposed filtering antenna has a bandwidth from 2.44 to 2.64 GHz for |S 11|<−10 dB, a peak gain of 5.5 dBi, and three radiation nulls at 2.3, 2.75, and 3.15 GHz enhancing the selectivity.
