CPW-Fed Ring Antenna For UWB Applications

ABSTRACT - This paper presents a Coplanar waveguide feed ( CPW) monopole ring antenna for ultra wideband applications. The proposed antenna consist of ring type patch embedded with horizontal strip in the patch. The parametric study is performed to understand the characteristics of the proposed antenna. The antenna exhibits impedance bandwidth from 3.7 GHz to 10.7 GHz. The various antenna parameters are studied. The proposed antenna is suitable for UWB applications.
