Abstract :
In this paper, the performance of different UWB plate monopole antennas is studied. The study includes square, circular and elliptical monopole antennas. Impedance bandwidth, radiation pattern and phase centre characteristics will be compared. The study will also show the effect of using different stop-band functions on the performance of these antennas.
