A miniaturized microstrip antenna with tunable double band-notched characteristics for UWB applications.

ABSTRACT: This paper proposes the step-by-step design procedure for obtaining independent dual band-notch performance, which provides a valuable method for designing tunable dual band-notched UWB antenna. The proposed antenna consists of the semicircle ring-like radiating patch with an elliptical-shaped slot and double split ring resonators on the top surface of the substrate and defected ground structure (DGS) on the bottom surface of the substrate. The operating frequencies ranged from 1.3 to 11.6 GHz (S11 < - 10 dB). By loading varactor diodes at the gap of the resonators structure and changing the varactor diode's reverse bias voltage(0-30 V), a wider band-notched tuning range from 2.47-4.19 to 4.32-5.96 GHz can be achieved, which covers the whole WiMAX band and WLAN band. The experimental resul
