Abstract
This article introduces the design of a small (30 mm × 35 mm × 1.6 mm) band‐rejected U‐slotted planar antenna on FR4 substrate having a relative permittivity of ε~r~ = 4.4 for Impulse Radio Ultra Wide Band (IR‐UWB) systems. The antenna is fed by a microstrip line and rejects the frequency band from 5.15 GHz to 5.825 GHz used by IEEE 802.11a and HIPERLAN/2. This antenna shows good characteristics for IR‐UWB. The effects of variation on steps and U‐Slot are discussed. The antenna is characterized both in the time and frequency domains by use of simulation and measurement.© 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract The design and performance of a stepped slot printed monopole antenna in the ultrawideband is presented in this article. Multiple resonances generated by the stepped slot geometry are matched in the ultrawideband using a modified microstrip feed. The impedance bandwidth (SWR < 2) of the
## Abstract In this letter, the design of a planar antenna compliant with FCC requirements for ultra‐wideband (UWB) transmission systems is described. With reference to a planar geometry on a dielectric substrate, the shape of the antenna is described by means of a spline‐based representation and i
## Abstract In this paper, we propose a small, lightweight, and low‐cost ultra‐wideband (UWB) antenna that exhibits a notch characteristic in the 5‐GHz WLAN band (5.15–5.825 GHz) using a planar half‐circle shape patch, a two‐step matching stub, a coplanar waveguide (CPW)‐type feed, and a hat‐shaped
Recently, the downsizing of portable radio equipment has been progressing, and wristwatch portable radio equipment is now available. The antenna for such equipment is highly affected by the human body, but a slot antenna can positively utilize the body effect. This paper proposes a small slot anten
structure device causes refractive-index perturbation in the radial direction of the fiber; hence, only asymmetrical cladding modes (LP11, LP12, LP13, . . .) will be coupled from the fundamental mode. To produce a broadband filter along the CϩL band, a grating device as long as 2.1 mm was used. The
