Abstract :
In this paper, the performance of circular Ultra wideband (UWB) monopole antennas is studied. The study includes implementing different feeding configurations to increase impedance and radiation bandwidth along with reducing the cross polarization. Phase centre profile for the studied antennas with and without stop-band functions will also be studied towards non dispersive antennas.
