Abstract

This paper presents the design and results of a small size, integrated Bluetooth and Ultrawideband (UWB) planar monopole antenna with a band-notched characteristic in the WLAN band. The antenna consists of a dual-ring radiator as the primary radiation element for the Bluetooth and UWB bands and a complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR) to produce a notched characteristic at the center frequency of 5.5 GHz. The return loss, voltage-standing-wave ratio (VSWR), radiation pattern and peak gain of the antenna are studied by computer simulation and verified by measurements which agree well with the simulation results.
