In this paper, a novel microstrip-fed filter-antenna (filtenna) exhibiting dual-wideband response is introduced. In this direction, a dual-wideband bandpass filter is designed first and then it is integrated into the feed line of a wideband monopole microstrip antenna. The dual-wideband bandpass filter is constructed by stub loaded multi-mode resonators. Two types of stub-loaded multi-mode resonators are coupled to the feeding lines from the filter's input and output ports. The proposed topology allows controlling both bandwidths independently. The designed filtenna was fabricated for the experimental verification. Measurements of the fabricated filtenna show a good agreement with the simulated results. Center frequencies of the proposed filtenna are 3.23 and 5.65 GHz with the fractional bandwidths (FBWs) of 46 % and 21.6 %.
