Abstract

A novel CPW-fed antenna having a frequency band-notched function for UWB applications is proposed and studied. By inserting a pair of inverted-T-shaped slots on the radiation element, the narrow frequency band notch has been created to cover the desired frequency varying from 3.4 to 3.69 GHz and the required UWB bandwidth is also acquainted. Good monopole-like radiation patterns and antenna gains have also been obtained.
