Abstract
This research proposition introduces a novel microstrip antenna design that features triple notches for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. The antenna, measuring 35.4 mm × 28.82 mm × 1.57 mm, incorporates rectangular and semi-circular slots, as well as a pentagonal stub. A modified U-shaped slot on the pentagonal stub creates one notched frequency band at 3.3–3.7 GHz. Additionally, two Split Ring Resonators (SRRs) are integrated into the antenna’s rear surface, resulting in two more notched bands at 5.1–5.8 GHz and 7.1–7.8 GHz. Operating within a frequency range from 3 to 11.2 GHz with VSWR ≤ 2, the antenna effectively excludes the triple stop bands at 3.3–3.7 GHz (11.4%), 5.1–5.8 GHz (12.8%) and 7.1–7.8 GHz (9.4%). The proposed antenna has been successfully prototyped and verified. An extensive result analysis has been conducted, confirming that the developed antenna is suitable for application in a range of wireless systems. Moreover, the article includes the implementation of an equivalent circuit for the proposed antenna.
