Broadband Planar Monopole Antennas

Monopole antennas have several advantages but for their narrow bandwidth. Broadband planar monopole antennas have all the advantages of the monopole in terms of their cost, and ease of fabrication besides, yielding very large bandwidths. For many applications large bandwidth is required. Recently, many techniques to tailor and optimize the impedance BW of these antennas have been investigated. ...

Monopole Antennas

This article describes the concepts underlying monopole antennas and their many applications, such as for broadcasting, car radios, and more recently for cellular telephones. In its simplest form, the monopole antenna above an infinite ground plane shown in Fig. 1(a) can be considered as one-half of a corresponding double-length center-fed linear dipole shown for comparison in Fig. 1(b). The cu...

Design and Analysis of Wideband Planar Monopole Antennas Using the Multilevel Fast Multipole Algorithm

Two planar monopole antennas with wide impedance bandwidth are designed. A full-wave method of moment (MoM) based on the electric field integral equation (EFIE) is applied to analyze the impedance bandwidth and radiation performance of the monopoles. Meanwhile, the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) is employed to reduce the memory requirements and computational time. Experimental resu...
