Abstract

Herein, a printed Ultra-Wideband (UWB) monopole antenna possessing quadruple band-notched characteristics has been investigated. A fiberglass textile composite laminate has been used as the substrate material. Complementary Split Ring Resonating Structures have been introduced at the centre of the fractal radiator to pro-create band notches for the 03.5/05.2 GHz WiMAX/WLAN bands. Two ‘C-shaped’ parasitic structures have been placed near both sides of the microstrip feed to generate a notch for 05.5 GHz WiMAX band. Two ‘L-shaped’ slits have been introduced near the edges of the fractional ground plane to produce a notch for the 05.8 GHz WLAN band. The proposed fractal monopole antenna shows UWB response from 02.7 – 11.5 GHz along with quadruple band-notched features. Simulated and measured responses tallied fairly well. The wearable textile antenna proposed here, is a novel contender for UWB communication possessing multiple band-notched features.
