Abstract

In this paper a new design of coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed printed octagonal aperture antenna with back patch is presented to cover the entire Ultra Wideband (UWB) band from 3.1GHz to 10.6 GHz. The proposed antenna is successfully simulated, fabricated and measured. Both impedance and radiation Characteristics obtained from simulations and measurements are in good agreement and provide the operating band from 2.8 to 10.7 GHz with S11 less than or equal to -10dB. Along with this, antenna shows nearly omnidirectional radiation pattern in H Plane, dipole like radiation pattern in E Plane.
