Abstract

A novel design of a compact ultra wideband antenna with triple band-notched characteristics is proposed. Much wider impedance bandwidth (from 2.63 to 13.02 GHz) is obtained by using a star like-shaped radiator and a defected rectangular ground plane and band-notched functions are obtained by attaching L- and I-shaped structure on the ground and a capacitive-loaded loop (CLL) resonator on the patch. The triple band-notch rejection at WiMAX, WLAN, and ITU bands are obtained by attaching I-shape strip, CLL resonator, and flip L-shape, respectively. The parametric study is carried out to study the influence of varying dimensions on the antenna performance. To validate simulation results of the design a prototype is fabricated on the commercially available FR4 material. The measured results reveal that the presented triple band-notch antenna offers a very wide bandwidth of 10.41 GHz (2.63–13.04 GHz) with triple band-notched characteristics at WiMAX (2.94–3.7 GHz), WLAN (5.1–5.9 GHz), and ITU (7.4–8.7 GHz).
