摘要

The proposed antenna presents a microstrip filter antenna with both filter out-of-band rejection characteristics and antenna radiation characteristics for WLAN communication system. The antenna consists of four U-shaped microstrip resonators, one Γ-shaped antenna, and one parallel coupling line. The Γ-shaped antenna has the filtering function as the last order resonator, and the parallel coupling line integrates the filter and antenna as the conductance converter. After simulation and test, the results show that the center frequency of the filter antenna is 5.25 GHz, the fractional bandwidth
is 8.0% (5.0 − 5.42 GHz), the in-band gain changes smoothly, the maximum in-band gain is 3.059 dBi, the gain at 150 MHz outside the passband rapidly decreases to 10.0 dBi, and the overall out-of-band gain drops to below −24 dBi. The filter antenna has a simple structure and thin substrate, which optimizes the overall size of the filter and antenna, reduces the transmission loss between them, and is applicable to the RF front-end of wireless communication systems.
