Abstract :
A simple and compact ultra-wideband microstrip-fed planar antenna with dual bandstop characteristic is presented. By using a U-slot defected ground structure (DGS) in the feedline, a stopband of 600 MHz (from 5.45 to 6.05 GHz) for band rejection of WLAN is achieved. To obtain another stopband, an arched slot is etched on the radiating patch. Experimental results show that the designed antenna, with a compact size of 30 times 24.5 mm, has an impedance bandwidth of 2.8-11 GHz for voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2, except two frequency stop-bands of 3.5-4.25 GHz and 5.45- 6.05 GHz. Moreover, the antenna has good omnidirectional radiation patterns in the H-plane.
