Switched Band-Notched UWB/ WLAN Monopole AntennaAbstract
A switched band antenna that has a capability to operate in tri-band WLAN frequency band (2.4–2.485 GHz, 5.15-5.35 GHz and 5.725- 5.825 GHz) and a band-notched UWB frequency band (the stop-band covers the frequency range from 5.15 GHz to 5.825 GHz) is presented. The antenna uses a switchable ground and a switchable monopole patch to provide a switched band property. To the authors’ knowledge, the proposed antenna represents a feature that is unique to this paper.
