Abstract

A planar slot antenna operating at 2.75–9.75 GHz is studied for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications, where three controllable notched bands centered at 4, 5.9 and 8.45 GHz are further introduced to avoid some potential interferences. The elliptical slots and coplanar waveguide feeding lines are incorporated to achieve desired UWB operation. By introducing a V-shaped and two U-shaped slots on the CPW signal line, three notched bands are implemented, and each notch band can be adjusted independently. Measurements on the developed demonstrator match with the numerical simulations.
