Abstract :
In this article a compact ultra-wideband antenna is presented. The antenna is compact, lightweight, easy to fabricate and has a moderate gain. A three dimensional fullwave electromagnetic simulation software (Microwave Studio) has been used for the analysis and optimization of the antenna. Simulation results and measurements for a prototype of this antenna are presented.
