In this paper, a printed monopole antenna with reduced ground plane has been presented as a candidate for use in ultra-wideband applications. The monopole antenna structure is a nearly square shaped with m-slot embedded in it. A 50Ω microstrip line is used to feed the proposed antenna. The proposed antenna has been supposed to be etched using a substrate with relative permittivity of 4.6 and th...

By defecting the ground plane bandwidth of 38.7% with respect to center frequency of a Microstrip patch antenna has been achieved which can be used for WLAN application. 82.4% size reduction has also been achieved by using shorting pin of a microstrip patch anten...

A compact planar monopole UWB antenna with quadruple band-notched characteristics is analyzed and presented. By introducing a C-shaped slot, nested C-shaped slot in the radiating patch and U-shaped slot in the feed line, quadruple band-notched characteristics are achieved at frequencies of 2.5, 3.7, 5.8 and 8.2 GHz. The proposed antenna has been fabricated and tested. Measured impedance bandwid...

In this paper, a modified square monopole antenna with multi-resonance performance, for UWB applications is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a square radiating patch with a pair of T-shaped slots and a ground plane with a pair of rectangular sleeve and a T-shaped resonator which provides a wide usable fractional bandwidth of more than 125% (3.05–13.57 GHz). By optimizing dimension of ...

In this paper, we present a compact and low-profile monopole antenna with a simple structure for the 2.6-2.73 GHz frequency band, the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) and the Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) applications. The first configuration of our antenna mainly consists by three radiating elements: inverted L-shaped Stub1, L-shaped Stub2 and a rectangle Stub3. By ...

Abstract— The paper presents the design and performance measures of a printed stepped patch monopole antenna with semi-elliptical ground plane and band notch for ultra wideband applications.

A compact ultrawideband (UWB) monopole antenna with two U-shaped slots for WLAN and WiMAX dual band-notched functions is proposed and experimentally studied. The proposed antenna with the size of 28mm × 24mm × 1.6mm is excited by a 50Ω microstrip feed line. The band-notch functions are realized by loading two approximate half-wavelength U-shaped slots which change the current distribution on th...

This paper presents an investigation of split ring resonator (SRR) parameters on a coaxial-fed monopole antenna. The adding of SRR slot can create a notch in the result of coaxial-fed monopole antenna design. Thus, this paper aims to investigate the effect of changes to the outer ring radius and slit cut width of the SRR slot. All antenna designs and simulations involved are drawn and simulated...

This paper presents the design equations for lower band-edge frequency for all the regular shapes of printed monopole antennas with various feed positions. The length of the feed transmission line is a critical design parameter of these monopole antennas. Design curves for the length of the feed transmission line for various lower band-edge frequencies for all these regular shaped monopoles hav...
