Abstract

A compact triple band-notched printed monopole antenna for ultra-wideband (UWB) application is presented. By inserting two triangular-shaped notches in both sides of the ground plane of microstrip feed line, additional resonances are excited and the bandwidth is increased up to 160%. Three sharp notched frequency bands at 3.8 GHz, 5.5 GHz, and 7.5 GHz are achieved by embedding a pair of rectangularshaped slits in the ground plane and two pairs of modified bow-shaped slits in the patch. This novel monopole antenna has ultra-wide frequency bandwidth for input impedance, compact size (24 mm × 20 mm), low cost fabrication and Omnidirectional H-plane radiation pattern which makes it suitable for ultra-wideband applications. The measured results reveal that the presented triple band-notched monopole antenna is a promising candidate for UWB communication systems to avoid interference with WiMax band (3.3-3.7 GHz), some C-band (3.7-4.2 GHz), WLAN (5.15- 5.825 GHz) bands and some C-band satellite communication systems (7-8 GHz).
