Abstract
Compact coplanar waveguide Ultra-wideband (UWB) monopole antenna with band notched characteristics is presented in this paper. The band rejection is achieved by etching a circular slot on the radiating patch. The antenna is printed on the FR4-Epoxy substrate with overall dimensions of 23.5 × 31 × 1.5 mm3. The measured results indicate that the antenna operates in the frequency range from 1.76 to 11.07 GHz and rejects the band 2.42 to 5.37 GHz with an acceptable measured input impedance over the whole operating frequency bandwidth. Furthermore, the simulated results indicate that the antenna exhibits stable radiation patterns with appreciable gain and efficiency over the whole operating band except at the notched-band. Accordingly, this antenna provides a good solution for wireless communication systems with good characteristics.
