Abstract

A planar ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with triple-notched bands based on square ring short stub loaded resonator (SRSSLR) is presented in this paper. By coupling a SRSSLR beside the microstrip feedline, band-rejected filtering properties around the C-band satellite communication band, 5.8 GHz WLAN band, and 6.8 GHz RFID band are generated. The notched frequencies can be adjusted according to specification by altering the SRSSLR. The results indicate that proposed planar antenna not only retains an ultra wide bandwidth, but also owns triple band-rejections capability. The UWB antenna demonstrates omnidirectional radiation patterns across nearly whole operating bandwidth that is suitable for UWB communications.
