In this paper, a duplexing antenna and two multi-band filtering antennas using resonator loaded slot are presented. The loaded slot can be flexibly designed as a dual-band or a tri-band antenna by changing the number of the loaded resonator. The operating frequencies of the slot antenna can be easily controlled through tuning the lengths and positions of the loaded elements. By integrating the multi-band antenna and the multi-mode resonator, duplexing and filtering antennas can be realized. The duplexing antenna consists of two single-mode resonators, a dual-mode stub-loaded resonator as the junction resonator and a dual-band slot antenna. The dual-band and tri-band filtering antennas each contains a dual-mode resonator or a tri-mode resonator, radiating through resonator loaded slot antenna. Since the slot is the only radiation element, all the operating bands of the three antennas show good bi-directional radiation patterns. For validation, all of the antennas are designed, manufactured and measured.
