Abstract :
The impedance characteristics of planar bow-tie-like monopole antennas have been studied experimentally. The planar bow-tie-like monopole antenna achieves a broad bandwidth, typically of >75%. A modified formula is suggested to accurately evaluate the frequency corresponding to the lower edge of the impedance bandwidth
