Absorptive Microstrip-Fed Slot Antenna With Wide Reflectionless Band by Loading Bandstop Filter

This paper presents an absorptive microstrip-fed slot antenna with a wide reflectionless band and high radiation efficiency. The proposed antenna consists of a microstrip-fed slot antenna, a quarter-wavelength coupled-line bandstop filter (BSF), and absorptive resistors attached to a grounding pad....
