Abstract
A novel elliptically slotted antenna (ESA), with two notched bands for Ultrawideband (UWB) applications, is presented. The ESA comprises of an elliptically slotted radiator with a beveled defected ground structure (DGS) for achieving UWB bandwidth ranging from 3.42 to 11.79 GHz (110%) for VSWR< 2. Two rejected bands at WLAN (5.02–5.97 GHz) and down link of X- band (7.23–7.72 GHz) applications are obtained by etching S-shaped slot in the microstrip feed line and an asymmetrical C- shaped parasitic stub above the DGS, respectively. The ESA is printed on FR-4 substrate with a compact size of 24 × 28 and with a stable gain fluctuation from 2 to 4.08 dBi. A good matching, achieved in-between tested and simulated results, makes ESA to be a suitable candidate for WLAN/X-band-notched UWB applications.
