Abstract

A printed L-shaped monopole antenna for applications in ultrawideband (UWB) systems such as home networks and various wireless systems is presented with signal transfer analyses both in the time and frequency domains. A miniaturization of the proposed antenna has been accomplished by folding and tuning the printed monopole antenna and considering the easy-mountable structure in high-data-rate wireless systems and universal serial bus (USB) dongle peripherals. The results obtained show that the input impedance bandwidth is approximately 6.6 GHz ranging from 4 to 10.6 GHz under the general criterion of VSWR less than 2:1. In addition, the relationship between the efficiency of data transfer and input/output signals is considered.
