A Compact CPW-Fed Uwb Antenna With Gsm, Gps, Bluetooth and Dual Notch Bands Applications

Abstract

A novel compact ultrawideband (UWB) CPW-fed antenna with triple lower pass bands and dual notched bands for wireless applications is presented. The low-profile antenna comprises of an approximate hexagonal-shaped radiator for covering the UWB band (3.1 ∼ 10.8 GHz). Triple lower pass bands, the 1.5 Gband, 1.8 GHz GSM band and 2.4 GHz Bluetooth band, can be realized by adding three handstand semielliptical-shaped stubs bilaterally at the upper part of antenna ground. A notched band of 3.3 ∼ 3.7 GHz for rejection of WiMAX radio signals can also be obtained by adjusting the geometry of the three stubs. In addition, an U-shaped slot on the radiating patch generates a notched band in 5.15 ∼ 5.825 GHz for rejection of WLAN radio signals. The proposed antenna is designed and built on a FR-4 substrate, with overall size of 25 mm × 24 mm. The simulated and measured results are presented and show that the proposed compact antenna has a stable and omnidirectional radiation patterns across all the relevant bands.

Tri-band compact ACS-fed meander-line antenna for wireless communications

“…Other methods to produce multiple resonate modes are by extending resonance branches or adding parasitic resonators to provide several current paths. These techniques include loading the antenna with an additional V-shaped sleeve [8], an inverted U-shaped strip [9], handstand stubs to ground plane aperture [10], a parasitic E-shaped strip [11], and a modified mirrored L-shaped conductor-back parasitic plane[12]. Different techniques to generate multiple resonant modes have been used simultaneously in which a Y-shaped monopole radiator with a meandering split-ring slot, as well as a pair of inverted-L strips embedded in the modified rectangular slot, are employed in the antenna design [13].…”

Compact CPW-fed bow-tie and triangle slotted antenna with wide impedance bandwidth characteristics

“…*Printed microstrip slot antennas have been used in many wireless communication systems because of their small size, low profile, light weight, low cost and simplicity of the structure, installation and fabrication (Moosazadeh and Kharkovsky, 2014;Sung, 2012;Luo et al, 2013). These types of antennas easily can integrate with monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) and provide stable radiation patterns (Lin et al, 2013;Volakis et al, 2010).…”

Wideband Slot Antenna for 4G applications

“…Emerging wireless applications demand challenges in designing of the antenna. Several wireless applications such as LTE, 4G, laptops, cellular phones, PC wireless cards and numerous remote-sensing devices require small size antennas [4][5][6][7][8]. Slot antennas due to their simple structure can offer enormous advantages for these applications.…”
