AbstractA compact ultra-wideband (UWB) monopole antenna with reconfigurable band-notch characteristics is demonstrated in this paper. It is comprised of a modified rectangular patch and a defected ground plane. The band-notch property in the WiMAX and WLAN bands is achieved by etching an open-ended slot on the radiating patch and an inverted U-shaped slot on the ground plane, respectively. To obtain the reconfigurable band-notch performance, two PIN diodes are inserted in the slots, and then the notch-band can be switched by changing the states of the PIN diodes. The antenna has a compact size of 0.47 λ1 × 0.27 λ1. The simulated and measured results indicate that the antenna can operate at a UWB mode, two single band-notch modes, and a dual band-notch mode. Moreover, stable radiation patterns are obtained.

AbstractA novel technique to add an extra Bluetooth band and triple notch bands simultaneously to a compact ultra-wideband (UWB) monopole antenna is presented. This scissors-shaped UWB antenna, covering 2.9 GHz–12.5 GHz, is fed by a special microstrip line. To create an extra Bluetooth band centered at 2.45 GHz, an arc-shaped stub is attached to the high concentrated current area right of the feed line and a rectangular slot is etched in the radiation patch. Besides, a notch band for WLAN (5.6 GHz–6.15 GHz) is also obtained. In addition, by connecting two asymmetric stubs to the feed line, two other notch bands in 3.28 GHz–3.8 GHz for WiMAX and 7.1 GHz–7.76 GHz for downlink of X-band satellite communication systems are achieved. The proposed antenna with compact size of 20 mm × 26 mm is fabricated and measured, showing stable antenna gain and good omni-directional radiation patterns in H-plane.

The requirement to serve more users and provide more data at more incredible data speeds drives demand for wireless wideband communications. The Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) technology uses nanosecond-long pulses to span an extensive frequency range. The high bandwidth, low power consumption, and less fading due to multipath are attained in UWB communication technologies. This paper explains a hexagonal monopole antenna design using a high-frequency structure simulator (HFSS) and is further optimized for c better bandwidth. A hexagonal monopole antenna is designed using FR-4 epoxy metamaterial substrate. The optimum hexagonal bandwidth is attained at a span of 6.13 to 7.34 GHz frequency, and the polar gain is 1.2 dB. This paper provides the UWB antenna design; an optimized bandwidth is achieved as expected, the applications of smart marketing and a discussion of all relevant literature are carried out.

The Tianwen-1 of China is expected to land and explore on the planet Mars in May 2021, carrying a Mars Rover-mounted Subsurface Penetrating Radar (RoSPR) system. A VHF band ultra-wideband (UWB) monopole antenna integrated on the Mars Rover, and described in this paper, has been designed for the subsurface exploration of Mars tens of meters deep. Conventional antenna design methods usually prove difficult in taking into account several key parameters such as miniaturization, broadband characteristics and radiation efficiency. Moreover, there is almost no special research on the reliability of antennas. For this purpose, a miniaturized air-coupled monopole antenna integrated with the Mars Rover has been designed. The overall length of the antenna is 0.13 λ at the lowest operating frequency. In addition, the classical Wu–King profile is improved, which not only satisfies the operating bandwidth of the antenna, but also increases the gain by 3–4 dB. In the design, the innovative application of planar embedded resistance greatly enhances the reliability of the antenna and thereby ensures that the antenna can work on Mars for a long term. This is the first application of this antenna design method in the aerospace field. Because it is difficult to test the low-frequency antenna accurately, a 1:4 scale model of the antenna and Rover is fabricated to equivalently measure the radiation characteristics of the antenna. Furthermore, the performance and practicability of the antenna and radar system are verified on the glacier.
