A planar UWB antenna with added GSM 1800/WMTS and UMTS bands is presented. A CPW-fed circular patch is used to obtain wideband characteristic covering the UWB range. A novel slot formed by merging the alternate sides of a hexagon with isosceles triangles is inserted in the patch to obtain dual-band operation with the lower band suitable for GSM 1800 operation. By inserting a bent monopole in th...

This paper presents the development of an Ultra Wide Band (UWB) monopole antenna with dual band notch characteristics. Modified crown-square shaped fractal slots in the ground-plane are implemented to enhance the impedance bandwidth to around 58% as compared to conventional square monopole antenna without slots. Impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is approximately 114% with Voltage stan...

A coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with dual notched band characteristics is presented in this paper. The circular wide slot and circular radiation patch are utilized to broaden the impedance bandwidth of the UWB antenna. The dual notched band functions are achieved by employing two stepped impedance resonators (SIRs) which etched on the circular radiation patch and CPW...

A novel technique for obtaining a single-layer single-feed dual frequency rectangular microstrip antenna with protruding semi ellipse for s-band communication is proposed and demonstrated. By protruding semi ellipse of appropriate dimension close to one of the edge, the rectangular patch has been shown to realize dual-frequency broadside radiations. This dual frequency operation increases its a...

Since the first Report and Order by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) authorized the unlicensed use of ultra wideband (UWB) which must meet the emission masks on February 14, 2002 [1], both industry and academia have paid much attention to R&D of commercial UWB systems. Among UWB system design, the UWB antenna is the key component. Recently, a considerable amount of researches have be...

Planar monopole antenna having circular radiating patch, excited with 50 ? co-planar waveguide transmission line is chosen here. Slots are incorporated in the radiation patch to achieve band-notch characteristics at two distinct bands for WiMAX (3-4 GHz) and WLAN (5-6 GHz) applications...

Abslmct This paper presents the experimental investigation of a dual-operation antenna operating in the L-band region. The basis of the design is the basic rectangular patch. The patch is perturbed with embedded two L-section structures. The chosen frequencies are 1.575 GHz for Giobal Positioning System (GPS) satellite receiver and 1.8 GHz for Global System for Mobile (GSM). The antenna has bee...

In this article, microstrip patch antenna with polarization diversity is presented for wireless applications. The proposed antenna consists of two feeding modes; first one is broadside mode (TM11) and second is conical mode (TM01). These two modes are used to realize the polarization diversity. Triangular slot is made on patch which helps for achieving dual-band operation. The simulated and mea...
