A CPW-Fed Ultra-Wideband Planar Inverted Cone Antenna
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research C, Vol. 12, 101-112, 2010
Abstract
This paper presents a CPW-fed planar inverted cone antenna (PICA) for ultra-wideband (UWB) communication applications. The proposed PICA provides a conventional monopole type omnidirectional radiation pattern, and it utilizes the advantages of the coplanar-waveguide (CPW) to simplify the structure of the antenna into a single metallic level. To improve radiation characteristics, a tapered and corrugated ground plane is used. In addition, the PICA's radiating element with three self-similarity holes is attempted to enhance performance of the antenna. The simulated and measured results demonstrate that the proposed PICA achieves a broad impedance bandwidth from 1.3 GHz to 11GHz within the magnitude of S11 (dB) less than -10 dB and maintains nearly omnidirectional radiation characteristics.
