Abstract
A compact planar monopole antenna with standard band-notched characteristic suitable for ultrawideband (UWB) applications is presented. This microstrip-fed antenna, consisting of a square slot patch with a vertical coupling strip, only occupies a small size of 15 (L) × 15 (W) × 1.6 (H) mm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sup> . By properly designing the strip placed at the center of the patch, good frequency rejection performance of the antenna with a wide operating band from 3.05 to 11.15 GHz can be obtained. Compared to other designs, the antenna has a quite simple structure to make the band-notched property to reduce the effect caused by the frequency interference. Furthermore, fairly good omnidirectional radiation patterns and transmission responses both indicate that the proposed antenna is well suited to be integrated within various portable devices for UWB operation.
