Performances Study of UWB Monopole Antennas Using Half-Elliptic Radiator Conformed on Elliptical Surface

Abstract

This paper presents a performances study of UWB monopole antenna using halfelliptic radiator conformed on elliptical surface. The proposed antenna, simulated using microwave studio computer CST and High frequency simulator structure HFSS, is designed to operate in frequency interval over 3.1 to 40 GHz. Good return loss and radiation pattern characteristics are obtained in the frequency band of interest. The proposed antenna structure is suitable for ultra-wideband applications, which is, required for many wearable electronics applications.
