Abstract :
The development of the high data rate wireless communication systems, has placed significant demands on antenna designers, in particular, the requirement for smaller elements with broader bandwidths. In this paper, a novel UWB antenna with notch-band frequency is studied. Effects of the various parameters for antenna performances are also discussed. An optimized compact UWB antenna with notch-frequency function is fabricated and experimentally examined. The measured results show the proposed UWB antenna can achieve a return loss greater than 10 db over an ultrawide bandwidth, of 9.8 GHz, from 2.97 GHz to 12.77 GHz with a tunable notch-frequency band of 5.15 GHz to 5.825 GHz
