Abstract :
A planar monopole UWB antenna with good time-domain performance is presented, calculation and analysis are made through time-domain pattern descriptors. The profile of antenna is simple and easy to be implemented. The proposed antenna is simulated by CST Microwave Studio, some factors which can affect the time-domain performance such as pulse fidelity are studied and taken into account in antenna design. The results of calculation show that proposed antenna has good performance in time-domain, especially in pulse fidelity. The proposed antenna shows an ultra-wide passband, the upper limit frequency exceeds 12 GHz, that can meet the requirement in impedance bandwidth of FCC.
