A novel modified printed monopole antenna with variable frequency band-notch characteristic for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a truncated ground plane and a radiating patch with two tapered steps. To generate a notch band at 5–6GHz with good level of band-notch a new T-shaped parasitic element placed on the back layer of the substrate along wit...

This paper presents the design and results of a compact tapered U slot UWB printed monopole microstrip antenna. The planar, very small, thin UWB antenna fed by a single 50? microstrip line with truncated ground plane is excited by a coaxial SMA connector. The simulation was done using Ansoft High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. Extensive investigations and parametric analysis is ...

A coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with a notch band characteristic is presented in the paper. The radiation patch of the proposed UWB antenna is designed using cantor set fractal technology. The bandwidth is broadened by setting two symmetrical triangular tapered corners at the bottom of the wide slot of the proposed UWB antenna. The notched band characteristic is achi...

Compact fifth-generation (5G) low-frequency band filtering antennas (filtennas) with stable directive radiation patterns, improved bandwidth (BW), and gain are designed, fabricated, tested in this research. The proposed filtennas achieved by combining the predesigned compact 5G (5.975 – 7.125 GHz) third-order uniform non-uniform transmission line hairpin bandpass filters (UTL NTL HPBFs) ultrawi...
