Abstract
The antenna is composed of a half trapezoid ground plane and a modified rectangular monopole patch, which is fed by a tapered modified microstrip feed. A 62% reduction in antenna size has been achieved with an asymmetric structure. Also, the proposed antenna can provide good impedance matching over an extremely wideband. Measurements indicate that this antenna has an impedance bandwidth from 1.05 GHz to 32.7 GHz (31:1) with a VSWR≤2.
