Ultra wide bands antennas with notched
bands characteristics have recently been considered for efficient communication
between devices. In this paper, a compact ultra-wideband antenna (UWB) for UWB
applications with triple bandnotched characteristics is presented. The proposed
antenna consists of a square patch with four truncated corners and a partial
ground plane with a rectangular slit. The operation bandwidth of the designed
antenna is from 2.66 GHz to more than 13.5 GHz. Band-notched characteristics of
antenna to reject the frequency band of 3.18-3.59 GHz and 4.70-5.88 GHz, is realized by inserting two
C-shaped slots in the patch, the third band of 9.54-12.22 GHz is achieved by slottype
capacitively-loaded loop (CLL) inserted in the patch near the feed line.
Details of the proposed antenna design and simulated results are presented and
discussed.
