Abstract :
This paper presents a novel on-chip antenna with quintuple band so that it will be able to operate in the ultra wideband (UWB). The antenna consists of two trapezoidal slots which are symmetrical in the patch with coaxial feeding. The two types of substrate we have investigated for antenna design are the HRS and Pyrex glass wafers. The possibility of on-chip antenna integration with circuitry is shown. As a result, a novel multi-band antenna structure for sensor network is proposed for a quintuple band application; C-band and X-band.
