Abstract:
A compact coplanar waveguide-fed (CPW) monopole antenna for ultra-wideband
wireless communication is presented. The proposed antenna comprises of a CPW-fed
beveled rectangular patch with a modified slotted ground. The overall size of the antenna is
30 mm 27 mm 1.6 mm. The lower edge of the band is attained by properly decoupling
the resonant frequencies due to the extended ground plane and the beveled rectangular
patch of the antenna. The upper edge of the radiating band is enhanced by beveling the
ground plane corners near the feed point. Experimental results show that the designed
antenna operates in the 2.7–12 GHz band, for S11 10 dB with a gain of 2.7–5 dBi. Both
the frequency domain and time domain characteristics of the antenna are investigated using
antenna transfer function. It is observed that the antenna exhibits identical radiation patterns
and reasonable transient characteristics over the entire operating band

Abstract:
A planar monopole antenna suitable for broadband wireless communication is designed and developed. With the use of a truncated ground plane, the proposed printed monopole antenna offers nearly 60% 2:1 VSWR bandwidth and good radiation characteristics for the frequencies across the operating band. A parametric study of the antenna is performed based on the optimized design, and a prototype of the antenna suitable for 2.4-GHz WLAN application is presented. The antenna can be easily integrated into wireless circuitry and is convenient for application in laptop computers.
