Abstract
The main objective of this work is to design compact size Ultra-wideband antenna with improved radiation pattern. In this project, the effect of change in antenna dimension has been studied also technique like Beveling, DGS, and Differential feed has been implemented and the radiation pattern is enhanced. The antenna has simulated and evaluated in Finite Element Method based ANSOFT-HFSS v11.0 simulation software using FR4_epoxy substrate with dielectric constant of 4.4, loss tangent of 0.02. The Proposed antenna shows return loss of S11 < −10 dB (3.1–10.6 GHz), 85–90 % radiation efficiency within operating frequency band and 10–15 dB cross polarization has been reduced. The differential feeding technique shows an improved radiation pattern.
