  • Abstract
    A monopole antenna, consisting of a square patch with square slots and a ground plane truncated with two mirror L-shaped notches is designed for ultrawideband (UWB) applications. The design employs a checkered-shaped semifractal patch with Lp × Wp squares. The proposed antenna operates in the 3.1-10.6-GHz band and has small overall dimensions of 12 × 18 × 1.6 mm3. The effect of the ground plane notch on the optimization of the return loss is discussed in detail.
