Abstract :
This paper presents electromagnetic simulation of a dielectric-filled rectangular waveguide antenna filter structure. A microstrip rectangular patch antenna represents the radiating element of this structure and it is endwall coupled with a waveguide that incorporates E-plane filter via a slot in the ground plane. Microstrip antenna, dielectric filling of the waveguide and direct connection between the antenna and the filter ensure compactness as the primal goal. The example antenna filter is designed and simulated at the centre frequency of 11.85 GHz.
