Abstract
AbstractThis article presents an optimized design for a novel printed monopole antenna, with a notched semi‐elliptical ground plane. A parametric study of the antenna parameters and their effects is given. The monopole antenna with the proposed bandwidth enhancement technique covers the band 3.1–10.6 GHz, which has been approved by the Federal Communications Commission as a commercial band for ultra‐wideband communication systems, with a measured return loss bandwidth of 7.9 GHz (2.9–10.8 GHz). © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
