Abstract:
this paper introduces VSWR characteristics of a slot loaded CPW -fed ultra-wideband (UWB) printed monopole antenna (PMA) with notched characteristics at X-Band. The antenna is designed on an FR-4 epoxy substrate with thickness of 1.6 mm and r =4.4. The antenna with three rectangular slots to create notched characteristics in 7.25–8.39 GHz for uplink and downlink of X-band satellite communication systems. The proposed antenna has a compact size of 26x30mm2 and operates over 3.15 to 10.63 GHz with VSWR < 2. All simulations in this work have been carried out by using the electromagnetic software Ansoft HFSS 13. Details of the proposed antenna are presented along with measured and simulated results.
