MICROSTRIP LINE-FED PATCH ANTENNA FOR UWB APPLICATIONS

摘要

A microstrip line-fed compact Ultra Wideband (UWB) mlcrostrip antenna is proposed for ultra wideband applications. The proposed antenna uses a method to minimize the monopole antenna by using extended ground on the same side of the patch. The ground is extended vertically around the patch. The antenna covers the frequency band from 2.98 to 12.41 GHz with 122% impedance bandwidth which contains a full band of ultra wide band (3.1-10.6 GHz), The antenna is simulated using HFSS v13 and various results are discussed.
