Abstract
This paper presents two design compact hexagonal monopole antennas for ultra-wideband applications. The two antennas are fed by a single microstrip line . The Zeland IE3D version 12 is employed for analysis at the frequency band of 4 to 14 GHz which has approved as a commercial UWB band. The experimental and simulation results exhibit good agreement together for antenna 1. The proposed antenna1 is able to achieve an impedance bandwidth about 111%. The proposed antenna2 is able to achieve an impedance bandwidth about (31.58%) for lower frequency and (62.54%) for upper frequency bandwidth. A simulated frequency notched band ranging from 6.05 GHz to 7.33 GHz and a measured frequency notched band ranging from 6.22 GHz to 8.99 GHz are achieved and gives one narrow band of axial ratio (1.43%). The proposed antennas can be used in wireless ultra-wideband (UWB) communications.
