Abstract

One of the most active areas of research in the field of communication systems today is wireless technology, and a study of communication systems would be lacking without a grasp of how antennas work and are constructed. We offer a straightforward and small printed ultra-wideband antenna with dual-band notched properties. A redesigned ground plane and a rectangular patch make up the proposed antenna. The lossy FR4 substrate is etched with the rectangular patch. The rectangular patch that a U-shaped slot has embedded in it is parasitized by a circular ring strip. A rectangular slit, two inverted-L slits, and a slit are imbedded into the ground plane. The antenna structure uses some bandwidth improvement and bandnotched techniques to widen the bandwidth and create notches. With dual-notched bands of 3.30-4.20 and 5.10-5.85 GHz, the proposed antenna covers the 3.3/3.7 GHz WiMAX, 3.7/4.2 GHz C-band, and 5.2/5.8 GHz wireless local area network systems. This is demonstrated by the simulated and measured results, which indicate that the proposed antenna offers a very wider bandwidth ranging from 3.04 to 17.30 GHz, defined by the return loss less than 10 dB.
