Abstract
This letter presents a new printed monopole antenna with super‐wideband performance useful for various ultra wideband communication applications. The antenna has a compact structure, and the total size is 24 × 24 × 1.6 mm^3^. The antenna structure consists of a hexagonal patch radiator with a modified 50 Ω coplanar waveguide line for excitation. By using a trident shaped feed line structure the super wide bandwidth is obtained. Measurement results show that the impedance bandwidth for S11 ≤ −10 dB is enhanced largely to more than 174%. Radiation patterns are given at 4, 6, and 9.5 GHz. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett, 2011; View this article online at wileyonlinelibrary.com. DOI 10.1002/mop.26090
