This paper presents the layout and results of a compact inkjet-printed filtenna operating at the S-band, ISM and UWB frequencies. The filtenna has a wide passband and, alongside, rejects WiMAX 3.5 GHz, WLAN 5.8 GHz and ITU service 8.2 GHz bands. The filtenna is simulated, printed using silver nanoparticle ink on flexible Kapton substrate and measured. Obtained simulation and measurement results agree well with each other. Measured return loss of the filtenna is more than 10 dB for 1.6–10.85 GHz and triple bandnotch, measuring at an average of 1.87 dB, are present at the unwanted bands. Radiation patterns, as well as the gain and efficiency of the filtenna have also been presented; with the average values being 3.4 dBi and 90 % respectively for the passband and averaging at −1.0 dBi and 22 % respectively for the three rejected bands.
