  • Abstract
    A novel broadband design of a coplanar waveguide fed square slot antenna loaded with conducting strips is proposed and experimentally studied. The obtained results show that the impedance bandwidth, determined by 10-dB return loss, of the proposed slot antenna can be greater than 60%. The design considerations for achieving broad-band operation of the proposed slot antenna are described, and experimental results are presented.
