A helical antenna (100) forming an integrated notch filter includes a first helical radiating element (101) attached to a second helical radiating element (103). The second helical radiating element is one quarter wavelength of a resonant operating frequency. The helical antenna (100) forms a notch filter through the use of intrinsic capacitance and inductance in both radiating elements. The invention provides an integrated notch filter for attenuating a predetermined range of radio frequency (RF) signals presented to the helical antenna (100) without the use of discrete circuit components.
