Abstract

In this paper, a novel microstrip-fed compact antenna with triple band-notched characteristics is presented for ultrawideband (UWB) applications. The antenna consists of a circular radiating patch, a 50› microstrip feed line, a partially slotted ground plane, and a pair of modifled capacitance loaded loop (MCLL) resonators. The novel resonators are symmetrically located in the vicinity of the feed line to achieve triple band-notched characteristics, such as 3.4{3.7GHz for WiMAX, 5.15{5.825GHz for WLAN, 7.25{8.395GHz for X-band satellite communication. The good performance of triple notched bands, stable gain and omnidirectional radiation patterns in the operating bands make the proposed antenna a good candidate for UWB utilization.
