A COMPACT DUAL NOTCH-BAND FREQUENCY RECONFIGURABLE UWB MONOPOLE ANTENNA

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.

Efficient Power

The design and analysis of a T-Stub U-Slot Frequency Reconfigurable Notch band antenna is considered in the present work using Coplanar Waveguide feed network for an efficient power transfer to improve the bandwidth characteristics of the antenna. The designed antenna has a dimension of 24X21X1.6 mm with FR4 substrate having a permittivity of 4.4. The proposed antenna consists of a T-Stub and U-Slots which are used to enhance the performance characteristics of the antenna. The reconfigurability is achieved by placing PIN diodes at T-Stub and U-Slots of the antenna design. The designed antenna is more suitable for WLAN, Wi-Fi, LTE and Bluetooth applications. Simulation results are obtained using CST tool and the same are presented at the end.
