Abstract :
A novel compact tapered-slot-fed annular slot antenna suitable for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications is presented. Frequency domain as well as time domain characteristics of the antenna are well investigated and discussed. A measure to quantify the performance of the radiation patterns of such an ultra-wideband antenna is described.
