Abstract

A compact Ultra Wide Band (UWB) antenna printed on a 50.8-μm Kapton polyimide Substrate is proposed in this paper. The semi-eliptical based radiating element is fed by a linearly tapered coplanar waveguide (CPW) which provides continuous transitional impedance for improved matching. The proposed design covers the standard UWB range which extends between 3.1 to 10.6 GHz. Furthermore, a T shaped structure is added to give rise to a resonance at 2.45 GHz which encompasses the Industrial, Scientific, Medical (ISM) band.
