Abstract
Three types of UWB antennas are proposed and investigated for UWB commu- nication applications. The proposed antennas consists of a planar circular patch monopole ul- trawideband antenna, one of which is incorporated along with the GPS (1.5 GHz) band due to addition of four unit cells of complimentary meander-line and a T-slot on the patch. Simulated S11 is −6 dB over 1.46–1.54 GHz and a wide bandwidth starting from a frequency of 3.45 GHz. The antenna is designed on a low-cost FR4 substrate having dimensions 37.5 × 31.5 × 1.6 mm3 . It has a uniform gain in the S and C bands. The antenna is fabricated and the match between the simulated and experimental results suggests that the proposed antenna can be a used for GPS, WiMAX, WLAN and other UWB applications.
