We propose a model of antenna-coupled microbolometer to be included in an array for receiving and detecting long wave infrared\n(LWIR) electromagnetic radiation. The antenna is joined to microstrip bandpass filters thus forming a single metal structure to\ndefine the operation frequency band. The antenna and microstrip filters are modeled in aluminum thin film. The microbolometer\nis modeled with superconducting niobium, all together on a silicon nitride membrane. The squared pixel structure is designed on\na support frame of 20
