  • Abstract
    The paper presents a feasible way to construct the honeycomb structured microstrip antenna for UWB (Ultra Wide-band) applications with dual notch characteristic. The antenna designed based on the concept of initial stage of honeycomb nest construction and Defected ground structure(DGS) with dual notch for Ultra Wide Bandwidth applications. The two notches for WiMAX (3.5GHz center frequency) and WLAN (5.5 GHz center frequency) are introduced by etching two asymmetrical quarter wavelength slots in the ground. The compact antenna of size 12 x 20 mm2 with simple geometry achieves very wide bandwidth of 3.1-13.8 GHz(Covers UWB and higher frequency band) with dual notch characteristic.
