Abstract

A coplanar edge-fed triangular patch antenna with an integrated stubline is proposed for harmonic rejection application. The design is aimed to achieve a good impedance matching to 50 ω at the fundamental frequency while suppressing radiation of the first and second harmonics. The antenna is attended to operate around 1GHz, with acceptable power gain above 1dBi and less than -15dBi at the harmonics. Simulated and measured results show a reasonable agreement.
