Abstract

This paper presents a novel, physically compact, miniaturized, ultra-wideband (UWB) monopole antenna design, which utilizes a defected ground structure (DGS). The defected ground design is realized as a spiral staircase-shaped pattern, and the optimized antenna volume is 26 × 25 × 1.6 mm. The resultant antenna operates over the full UWB frequency range from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz, with predicted gains in the range 0.1 dBi to 3.36 dBi across the band.

Keywords: Defected ground structure (DGS) Ultra-wideband (UWB) Metamaterial (MTM) antenna Monopole antenna
