In this paper, a compact ultra wideband (UWB) monopole antenna with a band-notched characteristic is presented. The bandnotched characteristic is achieved by inserting a U-shaped slot in the half elliptical ring radiating patch. The measured bandwidth of the designed antenna for |S11| 6 −10 dB spans 3.1 GHz to 9.3 GHz with a notched band (|S11| > −10 dB) spanning 5.12GHz to 5.99 GHz. A quasi-om...

This paper shows the design of a fractal patch antenna, which uses a unique fractal geometry known as Pythagoras tree with co-planer waveguide (CPW) feeding. The antenna has been designed for dual band operation at the WLAN/WiMAX (2.4 GHz) and WiMAX (3.5 GHz) for ultra-wide bandwidth applications. The antenna was simulated using CST Microwave Studio. The fabricated antenna’s measurement results...

With the advance of wireless communication systems and increasing importance of other wireless applications, wideband and low profile antennas are in great demand for both commercial and military applications. Multi-band and wideband antennas are desirable in personal communication systems, small satellite communication terminals, and other wireless applications. Wideband antennas also find app...

An axially corrugated horn antenna with an elliptically shaped taper is proposed for satellite communication applications. This structure is a good candidate for the feed of reflectors and also for improving the electrical properties of reflector antennas. A tapering method is used to justify the horizontal location of the corrugation profile which improves the electrical performance of the pre...

An innovative concept is utilized to develop the fractal antenna by coalesce the Koch prefractal and meander line. This fractal antenna is proposed for multistandard wireless applications. The shape and dimensions of the proposed antenna are chosen to obtain the multiband behaviour as well as miniaturized structure. Initially two different fractal concepts have been chosen through previous rese...

Log-Periodic Dipole Antenna (LPDA) is a common and important broadband antenna, due to its non-frequency dependent characteristic. However, in the conventional design, the physical size is restricted to the longest oscillator dipole w ith the low est resonant frequency, which is quite large and constrains its application. To realize the antenna miniaturization, many methods, including loading t...
