✦ Synopsis

In this article, the design and analysis of a double-ridged conical horn antenna with high gain and low cross polarization for wideband applications is presented. Doubleridged pyramidal horn antennas have been investigated in many references. There are no papers in the literature which are devoted to design and analysis of double-ridged conical horn antenna. The designed antenna has a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2.1 for the frequency range of 8-18 GHz. Moreover, the proposed antenna exhibits extremely low cross polarization, low side lobe level, high gain, and stable far-field radiation characteristics in the entire operating bandwidth. A new technique for synthesizing of the horn flare section is introduced. A coaxial line to circular double-ridged waveguide transition is introduced for coaxial feeding of the designed antenna. The proposed antenna is simulated with commercially available packages such as CST microwave studio and Ansoft HFSS in the operating frequency range. Simulation results for the VSWR, radiation patterns, and gain of the designed antenna over the frequency band 8-18 GHz are presented and discussed. V

## Abstract In this paper, we propose a new ultra‐wideband (UWB) antenna for UWB applications. The proposed antenna is designed to operate from 3.2 to 12 GHz. It consists of a rectangular patch with two steps, a single slot on the patch, and a partial ground plane. Details of the proposed antenna d

## Abstract A wideband cylindrical monopole antenna is presented for multiple band applications. Wideband property of the proposed antenna is achieved by the additional resonance from a stepped base part and a convex ground plane. The measured −10 dB impedance bandwidths are 1.74–3.06 and 5.59–10.6

## Abstract In this paper, the regular microstrip dipole antenna shape is modified by adding upper and lower triangular patches, which makes it look like a rhombus. The rhombus shape is chosen because of its wideband characteristics over the rectangular one. The presented antenna provides a wide ba
