In this article, a wideband filtering-radiating Yagi dipole antenna with the coplanar stripline (CPS) excitation form is investigated, designed, and fabricated. By introducing an open-circuited half-wavelength resonator between the CPS structure and dipole, the gain selectivity has been improved and the operating bandwidth is simultaneously enhanced. Then, the intrinsic filtering-radiating performance of Yagi antenna is studied. By implementing a reflector on initial structure, it is observed that two radiation nulls appear at both lower and upper gain passband edges, respectively. Moreover, in order to improve the selectivity in the upper stopband, a pair of U-shaped resonators are employed and coupled to CPS directly. As such, the antenna design is finally completed with expected characteristics. To verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme, a filtering Yagi antenna prototype with a wide bandwidth covering from 3.64 GHz to 4.38 GHz is designed, fabricated, and measured. Both simulated and measured results are found to be in good agreement, thus demonstrating that the presented antenna has the performances of high frequency selectivity and stable in-band gain.
