            Abstract : 
A novel UWB antenna is presented, which is formed by the modified Sierpinski-carpet fractal with the 50Ω micro-strip. Four resonant frequencies and three operation frequency bands can be observed via measurement between 1GHz-20GHz when return loss is smaller than -10 dB. The bandwidth of lower frequency band is from 1.1GHz to 10.8 GHz.
