In this communication, a flexible, bandwidth-enhanced, electrically small, electric near-field resonant parasitic (NFRP) filtering antenna is presented. The inherent radiation null of the dipole-driven NFRP antenna is first presented. In addition, by properly adjusting the relative position of the NFRP element and the driven dipole, this radiation null can be placed at either the lower or upper operational band edge. Then, by implementing multiple NFRP elements and properly allocating their relative positions, excellent bandpass-filtering response together with the enhanced bandwidth of the electrically small NFRP filtenna is accomplished. A prototype of the optimized design operating centered at 1.9 GHz was fabricated and measured. The simulation and experimental results are in good agreement, indicating that the antenna exhibits a wide ~11.3% impedance bandwidth with good out-of-band rejection, while maintaining its electrically small size: <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">ka</i> ~ 0.924. The flexibility of this antenna is experimentally analyzed under different bending conditions and the results confirm that its performance characteristics are substantially maintained.
