A dual-band coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed bow-tie slot antenna is proposed, which consists of a bow-tie slot, a pair of sector parasitic patches and a modified grounded plane with a band-notch property. The impedance matching, the resonant mode, the radiation patterns and the current distributions are studied. To generate dual-band characteristics, a V-shaped slot is etched on the radiating ground. Experimental and simulated results demonstrate that the antenna exhibits two separate impedance bandwidths of 1450 MHz (about 32.8% centred at 4.43 GHz) and 3500 MHz (about 37.8% centred at 9.25 GHz), which satisfy aircraft radar and X-band applications.

A miniaturized dual-mode bandpass filter (BPF) with elliptic function response using slot spurline is designed in this paper. The slot spurline can not only splits the degenerate modes but also determine the type of filter characteristic (Chebyshev or elliptic). To miniaturize the resonator, four sagittate stubs are proposed. For demonstration purpose, a BPF operating at 5.75 GHz for WLAN application was designed, fabricated, and measured. The measured results are in good agreement with the full-wave simulation results.
