In this letter, an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) monopole antenna with dual frequency band-stop performance is designed and manufactured. In the proposed structure, by inserting an S-shaped parasitic structure inside a square slot in the ground plane a new resonance at higher frequencies can be achieved, which provides a wide usable fractional bandwidth of more than 125%. In order to generate dual bandnotched function, we use four L-shaped strips protruded inside square ring. The measured results reveal that the antenna offers a very wide bandwidth from 2.63 to 14.2 GHz with two notched bands covering all the 5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN, 3.5/5.5 GHz WiMAX and 4 GHz C bands. Good VSWR and radiation pattern characteristics are obtained in the frequency band of interest.
