Triple Band Notched UWB Antenna Design Using Electromagnetic Band Gap Structures

A circular monopole antenna for ultra wideband (UWB) applications with triple band notches is proposed. The proposed antenna rejects worldwide interoperability for microwave access WiMAX band (3.3 GHz–3.8 GHz), wireless local area network WLAN band (5.15 GHz–5.825 GHz) and X-Band downlink satellite communication band (7.1 GHz–7.9 GHz). The antenna utilises mushroomtype and uniplanar Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) structures to achieve band-notched designs. The advantages of band-notched designs using EBG structures such as notch-frequency tuning, triple-notch antenna designs and stable radiation pattern are shown. The effect of variation of EBG structure parameters on which notched frequency depends is also investigated. Fabricated and measured results are in good agreement with simulated ones.

Design of band-notched antenna with DG-CEBG

ABSTRACT Ultra-wideband (UWB) disc monopole antenna with crescent shaped slot for double band-notched features is presented. Planned antenna discards worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) band (3.3–3.6 GHz) and wireless local area network (WLAN) band (5–6 GHz). Defected ground compact electromagnetic band gap (DG-CEBG) designs are used to accomplish band notches in WiMAX and WLAN bands. Defected ground planes are utilised to achieve compactness in electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures. The proposed WiMAX and WLAN DG-CEBG designs show a compactness of around 46% and 50%, respectively, over mushroom EBG structures. Parametric analyses of DG-CEBG design factors are carried out to control the notched frequencies. Stepwise notch transition from upper to lower frequencies is presented with incremental inductance augmentation. The proposed antenna is made-up on low-cost FR-4 substrate of complete extents as (42 × 50 × 1.6) mm3.Fabricated sample antenna shows excellent consistency in simulated and measured outcomes.

Dual Band Notched EBG Structure based UWB MIMO/Diversity Antenna with Reduced Wide Band Electromagnetic Coupling

Abstract A dual band-notched MIMO/Diversity antenna is proposed in this paper. The proposed antenna ensures notches in WiMAX band (3.3–3.6 GHz) besides WLAN band (5–6 GHz). Mushroom Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) arrangements are employed for discarding interfering frequencies. The procedure followed to attain notches is antenna shape independent with established formulas. The electromagnetic coupling among two narrowly set apart Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) monopoles is reduced by means of decoupling bands and slotted ground plane. Monopoles are 90° angularly parted with steps on the radiator. This aids to diminish mutual coupling and also adds in the direction of impedance matching by long current route. S21 or else mutual coupling of fewer than 15 dB is established over antenna operating range. Two-port envelope correlation coefficient is lower than 0.02 in UWB range of 3.1 GHz–10.6 GHz. The shifting in notch frequencies by varying variables in formulas is also reported. The suggested antenna is designed on low budget FR-4 substrate with measurements as ( 58×45×1.6
