Printed monopole antenna with tunable band-notched characteristic for use in mobile and ultra-wide band applications

In this paper, a half-circular disc PMA (Printed Monopole Antenna) for SWB (Super Wide Band) applications is presented. The dimensions of the substrate is 40x40x1.7mm. The antenna is printed on Rogers RT5880 dielectric material. The antenna VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) has less than 2 between 2.7 and 50 GHz. The antenna S11 has less than -10 between 2.7 and 50GHz. The antenna has a maximum gain of 12.4dBi. The BW (Bandwidth) of the proposed antenna is about 47.3 GHz. The antenna covered the WiMAX ((Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access), WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network), X band, Ka band, Ku band, 4G band, and the band of 5G (Fifth Generation) at the same time with nice gain and radiation efficiency. The radiator of the proposed antenna designs from a half-circular disc, rectangle, and triangle. The antenna has a partial ground plane. Three slots are etched in the ground plane for better impedance matching, two are circular slots and one is the rectangular slot. The antenna design is simulated in CST microwave studio 2016. The antenna has good radiation efficiency, other parameters such as VSWR S11, gain, and radiation pattern are discussed in detail.

AbstractIn this paper, a novel bird face microstrip printed monopole ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna is investigated. The proposed compact antenna consists of a ring-shaped with additional slot and slotted ground plane on FR4 material. The overall electrical dimension of the proposed antenna is 0.25 λ×0.36 λ×0.016 λ and is energized by microstrip feed line. The Computer Simulation Technology (CST) and the High Frequency Structural Simulator (HFSS) is applied in this analysis. The impedance bandwidth of the monopole antenna cover 3.1–12.3 GHz (9.2 GHz, BW) frequency range. The messurement displayed that the designed antenna achieved excellent gain and stable omnidirectional radiation patterns within the UWB. The maximum gain of 6.8 dBi and omnidirectional radiation pattern makes the proposed antenna that is suitable for UWB systems.

This paper presents a compact broadband printed monopole antenna with U-shaped slit in the partial ground plane and rectangular parasitic patches adjacent to the microstrip line for multiple applications. The optimal dimensions of the proposed antenna are 35 × 25 × 1.5 mm3 and is fabricated on commercially available low-cost FR4 substrate with εr = 4.3 and 0.025 loss tangent. Due to introduction of rectangular parasitic patches and U-shaped slit large bandwidth has been achieved. The impedance bandwidth (return loss, magnitude of S11 < 10 dB) of the proposed antenna is 139% (2.9–16.3 GHz). The proposed antenna covers ultra wide band applications, 5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN bands, 3.5/5.5 GHz WiMAX bands, X band (8–12 GHz), satellite communication, and other wireless communication services. The study shows that there is good agreement in simulated and measured results. Nearly stable radiation patterns have been obtained throughout the operating band. Antenna results and details are discussed and elaborated.
