In this paper a design process of a broadband printed monopole antenna using stepped cut at four corners (CSFC) technique is proposed. The CSFC is a technique that four corners a patch (rectangular/square) of planar monopole antennas are cut in order to enhance the impedance bandwidth. The technique can be used to design any different types of planar monopole antenna in specific frequency range...

This paper provides an overview of broadband terahertz antenna elements and arrays for integrated communication systems. The fundamental challenges on-chip off-chip design, the trade-offs between performance metrics, impact interface chip antennas are studied in detail. limitations benefits various technologies discussed. deployment printed circuit boards (PCB) flexible circuits (FPC) implement...

Conventional microstrip antennas in general have a conducting patch printed on a grounded microwave substrate, and have the attractive features of low profile, light weight, easy fabrication, and conformability to mounting hosts [1]. However, mi-crostrip antennas inherently have a narrow bandwidth, and bandwidth enhancement is usually demanded for practical applications. In addition, applicatio...

A planar elliptic broadband antenna with reconfigurable dual stop-bands performance was successfully designed and performed for multi-standard wireless communication systems. The proposed antenna consists of a broadband micro-strip fed printed monopole operating in the frequency range 0.75– 6GHz. The notch-band characteristic was obtained by printing two Open Loop Resonators (OLRs) on the front...
