Abstract :
A printed arc-shape wide-slot monopole antenna with a staircase-shape patch and a conductor- backed absorber has been developed experimentally. It has a wide impedance bandwidth of 132.8% that is ranged from 2.19 to 10.8 GHz. Moreover, it has broadside radiation patterns over such wide operating bandwidth. Furthermore, it has small size and low profile. Consequently, it is very suitable for the ultrawideband communication systems.
