A novel printed antenna having a frequency band notched function for UWB application is proposed and studied. With a pair of inverted-F-shaped slots introduced around the microstrip line on the ground and inserting a semicircle-rectangle radiating element, the designed antenna satisfies the VSWR requirement of less than 2.0 in the frequency band between 2.9 GHz–11.15 GHz while showing the band rejection performance in the frequency band from 4.96 GHz to 6.03 GHz. The experiment results and characteristics of the proposed antenna are shown in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A frequency notched ultra-wideband planar slot antenna is presented. By introducing a modified fractal-shaped slot to the patch, a notched band within a wide operation bandwidth is achieved. The designed antenna satisfies the voltage standing wave ratio requirement of less than 2.0 in the frequency band from 3.01 to 13 GHz above while showing the band rejection performance about 500 MHz in the frequency band of 5.59 to 6.09 GHz. Simulation and measurement results are presented for the proposed antenna. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A novel printed antenna having a frequency band-notched function for UWB applications is proposed and studied. With a pair of inverted C-shaped slots introduced around the microstrip line on the ground, a frequency-notched response at 5.2 GHz is obtained. The designed antenna satisfies the VSWR requirement of less than 2.0 in the frequency band between 2.8 and 10.7 GHz while showing the band rejection performance in the frequency band from 4.8 to 5.7 GHz. Good monopole-like radiation patterns and antenna gains have also been obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we propose a novel printed wideband monopole antenna with simple structure and compact size. The proposed antenna can provide two separate impedance bandwidths of 1.55 GHz about 48.8% (from 2.4 to 3.95 GHz) and 1.275 GHz about 22.4% (from 5.05 to 6.325 GHz), making it easily cover the required bandwidths for wireless local area network (WLAN) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) operations. Also, good antenna performances such as radiation patterns and antenna gains over the operating bands have been observed. Details of the proposed antenna design and experimental results are presented and discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A small printed antenna is described with subband rejection for ultrawideband (UWB) applications [1]. Two notches are incorporated in the radiating structure of the antenna to act as a bandstop filter to reject the undesired subband within the whole bandwidth [2]. The designed antenna features a compact size of 26×25 mm2, and satisfies the VSWR requirement of less than 2.0 in the frequency band from 3 GHz to more than 12 GHz excluding any undesired subband such as 4.65–5.65 GHz. Good monopole-like radiation patterns and antenna gains have also been obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A novel printed wideband monopole antenna for multiband operations is presented. Good impedance matching in a wide dual-band can be achieved by a simple circular monopole and a rectangular conductor-backed plane with a square hole. The measured 10 dB bandwidth for return loss is from 1.78 to 4.19 GHz about 80% and 5.12 to 6.35 GHz about 21.4% which covering all the 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN, 2.5/3.5/5.5 GHz WiMAX, DCS (1710–1880 MHz), PCS (1850–1990 MHz), UMT (1920–2170 MHz), and IMT-2000 (1900–2025 MHz) bands applications. Peak antenna gains have been obtained about 3.39 and 3.96 dBi for the lower and upper bands, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
