A CPW-FED monopole-like slot antenna for UWB applications

A CPW-fed monopole-like slot antenna for UWB applications is presented. Simulations are carried out to investigate its return loss, radiation behaviour, and gain response. The antenna offers a 129.74% (3.1–14.6 GHz) impedance bandwidth. This proposed antenna is compact in size which dimension is 25×25mm. The proposed antenna shows the consistent impedance, return loss and radiation pattern for entire frequency band.
