Abstract: | A novel monopole antenna with wide impedance bandwidth and axial ratio bandwidth (ARBW) is presented. The proposed structure is consisting of a wide slot hexagonal shape with an L-shaped radiator coupled inside the slot. Further, two inverted L-shaped strips are protruded on the opposite corners of the hexagonal patch for better radiation capability. The radiating patch is fed by a semi hexagonal ring feed mechanism followed by a tapered line coplanar waveguide (CPW) for improving antenna performance. The proposed structure is supported by a triangular shaped ground plane. An extremely wide -10 dB impedance bandwidth of around 195% and 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth of 32.5% is achieved. The designed antenna has stable radiation characteristics within the operating band. Proposed antenna is fabricated on FR4 epoxy substrate by means of standard photolithography process and measured results are found in a good match with simulated. |
