Abstract :
Ultra wideband antennas are specifically designed to transmit and/or receive very short time durations of electromagnetic energy. It is well known that UWB antenna design remains the major factor in the progress of UWB technology. This article describes a study of conventional antennas and why they are not suitable for a UWB system.
