Abstract: This letter constitutes a novel triple-band reconfigurable filtering antenna used for Bluetooth, WiMAX and WLAN applications. First, a compact triple-band reconfigurable filter is instigated which is composed of two pairs of Stepped Impedance Resonators (SIRs) and a pair of Uniform Impedance Resonators (UIRs). The SIRs are entrenched at the upper and lower half of feed lines operating at 2.4 and 5.4 GHz, respectively. A pair of UIRs operating at 3.5 GHz is folded and enclosed near the upper SIR. A shunt stub is tapped at the source-load feeding lines to upgrade the selectivity of the filter. The proposed filter uses four PIN diodes to initiate different reconfigurable multiband operations. A fractal antenna is implemented with a modified binary tree topology. The ground plane of the proposed antenna is reformed with a stub. The improved antenna structure enables three radiating bands with enhanced performance. Later, the designed filter is integrated into the antenna to implement the intended triple-band reconfigurable filtering antenna.
