Abstract

In this paper, an on-chip high integration reconfigurable dipole with band stop filters was demonstrated. This antenna was fabricated on a high resistivity silicon wafer, and several optimized band stop filters were introduced into antenna system to replace conventional inductors and capacitors. The measured results show that the stopband of this filter can meet the requirements of the designed dipole. This method will greatly improve the integration of antenna system. On the basis of structural optimization, the proposed reconfigurable dipole realized two resonant frequencies at 1.33 GHz and 1.65 GHz, and the radiation patterns also showed satisfactory results.
