With the rapid development in communication systems recently, improvements in components of the systems such as antennas and bandpass filters are continuously required to provide improved performance. High gain, wide bandwidth, and small size are the properties of antennas which are demanded in many modern applications, and achieving these simultaneously is a challenge. This thesis presents a new design approach to address this challenge. The coupling matrix is an approach used to represent the circuits made of coupled resonators such as filters and multiplexers. The approach has been utilised here to integrate a single resonator-based antenna with an n\(^t\)\(^h\) order filter. The integrated component is capable of providing a controllable bandwidth and introduces the filtering functionality. The approach is further developed in order to integrate bandpass filters with N×N resonator-based antenna arrays. This is to increase the gain of the array as well. Six novel components have been fabricated for the purpose of validation. This thesis also looks at a 300 GHz communication system which is proposed at The University of Birmingham with the objective to build a 10 metre indoor communication link. A 300 GHz (8×8) waveguide antenna array has been designed and fabricated for the system.
