Abstract EN

Directional ultrawideband (UWB) antennas are popular in wireless signal-tracking and body-area networks.

This paper presents a stacked microstrip antenna with an ultrawide impedance bandwidth of 114%, implemented by introducing defects on the radiating patches and the ground plane.

The compact (20×34 mm) antenna exhibits a directive radiation patterns for all frequencies of the 3–10.6 GHz band.

The optimized reflection response and the radiation pattern are experimentally verified.

The designed UWB antenna is used to maximize the received power of a software-defined radio (SDR) platform.

For an ultrawideband impulse radio system, this class of antennas is essential to improve the performance of the communication channels.
