AbstractThis paper presents a magnetless nonreciprocal diplexing antenna that uses time modulation. The device combines the functions of diplexers, filters, isolators, and antennas in a highly integrated manner. The magnetless nonreciprocity response is achieved by applying time modulation to the resonators of the filtering structures. These resonators are implemented in quarter‐wavelength microstrip lines terminated with varactors that are time modulated by low‐frequency signals fed from Coplanar Waveguides built on the ground plane of the microstrip structure. A prototype multilayer patch antenna is fabricated, which is fed through two orthogonal feedlines and the radiating square patch is coupled by a square ring slot etched in the ground plane. The experimental results show that a gain of 4 dB, out‐of band rejection of 22 dB, in‐band isolation of 20 dB, and inter‐port isolation of 35 dB is obtained at both 1.5 GHz (lower band) and 1.8 GHz (higher band).
