A new compact planar notched ultrawideband (UWB) antenna is designed for wireless communication application. The proposed antenna has a compact size of0.182λ × 0.228λ × 0.018λwhereλis the wavelength of the lowest operating frequency. The antenna is comprised of rectangular radiating patch, ground plane, and an arc-shaped strip in between radiating patch and feed line. By introducing a new Tuning Fork-shaped notch in the radiating plane, a stopband is obtained. The antenna is tested and measured. The measured result indicated that fabricated antenna has achieved a wide bandwidth of 4.33–13.8 GHz (at −10 dB return loss) with a rejection frequency band of 5.28–6.97 GHz (WiMAX, WLAN, and C-band). The effects of the parameters of the antenna are discussed. The experiment results demonstrate that the proposed antenna can well meet the requirement for the UWB communication in spite of its compactness and small size.

Antenna Characteristic

This article gives brief view of UWB microstrip antenna characteristic without a slot and with a triangular slot on the patch of the MSA. Nowadays UWB antenna is a must for wireless communication with the narrow pulses in the series of nanoseconds, for the application of ultra- wideband in frequency domain for very short distance and minimum power densities. The research in this field has become more sought-after and therefore the demand on UWB microstrip antenna is rising rapidly. The currents along the verge of the slot initiates additional resonance, it concords with the main patch resonance, which result in the production of overall frequency response characteristics, ultimately leads to wideband. Thus a crisp novel ultra-wideband configuration with and without a triangular slot have been proposed. And the radiation is in the broadside of antenna with small variation along the entire bandwidth. Thus improving the robustness of the MSA and cost reduction. Due to the potential of UWB antennas,they are significant to improve the performance of wireless communication systems. The MSA (microstrip antenna) is designed with FR-4 substrate. There is increase in bandwidth due to the introduction of triangular slot in the patch and the variation in the antenna parameters are briefed below. This document can be used as guide to design small MSA for mobile communication.

Circular Patch Antenna

Microstrip patch antenna is attractive for various applications due to its easy fabrication, low cost and small size. It simply comprises of a radiating patch and ground plane that are separated by a dielectric substrate. However, the resonance bandwidth of the microstrip antenna is still an issue that needs to be considered in research. This paper aims to enhance the bandwidth of a microstrip antenna or introduce more resonant frequencies within the Super High Frequency (SHF) band. The paper demonstrates empirical results for circular-shaped patch antenna using the High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS). It begins by investigating different patch sizes and substrate materials, so that an optimal preliminary design is introduced. Then, different slot shapes are inserted into the patch for significant enhancement of the resonance characteristics. As a result, new ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna designs are presented with bandwidth results reaching 15.5 GHz within the C, X, Ku and K bands. Also, new multiband antenna designs are presented with improved reflection valleys in the Ku, K and Ka bands.

Antennas play a vital role in wireless communication; a thirst of excellence in this area is unending. Proposed work describes a concept of fractal multiband antenna designed in the hexagon shape. Basically fractal is the concept used in Microstrip antenna for giving better results than conventional Microstrip antenna. By using hexagonal fractal antenna we can possibly achieve the radiation pattern with high gain. The coaxial feeding is used and multiple hexagons are interconnected in array for maintaining conductivity and to preserve electrical self similarity. Hexagonal antenna is used for different wireless applications. The proposed antenna frequency band covers a large number of wireless communication applications including GPS (1.6GHz), Bluetooth (2.4 GHz) & WLAN (3.6GHz). Antenna design has been designed and simulated by using the software Ansoft’s HFSS and parameters like bandwidth return loss, directivity, VSWR are analyzed. Fabrication of the antenna is done by using wet-etching method, on FR-4 dielectric substrate material. Experimental results are taken on Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) and those obtained results were compared with simulated results. The hexagonal fractal antenna array is found to possess predictable multiband characteristics.

The measured radiation patterns of this antenna are omnidirectional in H- plane and bidirectional in E-plane. An extended impedance bandwidth is achieved as a result of modified feed-line. The proposed antenna can be used for medical imaging and urban IoT applications.

In this proposition, a traditional UWB antenna with twofold indent channels was intended for a few remote applications. The exhibited antenna is outlined having estimations of 30 × 35 × 1.6 mm3 with a fix of rectangular staircase design. The dismissal bands are WLAN at 5 GHz (5.1 - 5.8 GHz) and the satellite X-band from space to earth (7.25 - 7.75 GHz). The patch with a step design with a modified π-formed opening gets the ultra-wide band. The UWB scope of 3.1 - 10.6 GHz affirmed by FCC can possibly cause interferences in the various wireless systems applications.. With a specific end goal to lessen these interferences, we settled on the band indent. In this proposed outline, the WLAN has scores setting a U-molded opening in the patch and the X-band has indents with a reversed T-shape in the ground plane.
