Abstract :
A small planar elliptical dipole antenna designed for ultra-wideband applications is proposed. With trimmed elliptical radiation patches and microstrip-coupled feeding structure, it exhibits excellent broadband behaviours and radiation patterns similar to those of a conventional dipole antenna. The simulated and measured results are in good agreement.
