Abstract
A tunable 3-D filter/antenna integration implementation is presented herein. The tunable integrated device consists of a tunable coaxial substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) resonator coupled to a tunable cavity-backed slot antenna. The filter/antenna synthesis presented in this work follows closely with traditional filter synthesis with the antenna coupling energy to free space used as the second external coupling port of the device. The filter/antenna is frequency tunable from 1.71 - 2.88 GHz (51%) with a fractional bandwidth range of 2.90 - 8.10%, gain of -3.14 - 2.61 dBi, overall efficiency between 26.3 and 82.6%, and cross polarization level better than 20 dB in all cases.
