  • Abstract
    This letter proposes a double-sided printed bow-tie antenna for ultra wide band (UWB) applications. The frequency band considered is 3.1-10.6 GHz, which has been approved by the Federal Communications Commission as a commercial UWB band. The proposed antenna has a return loss less than 10 dB, phase linearity, and gain flatness over the above frequency band.
