Abstract

In this paper, a printed hexagon antenna with band-notch function is designed for high rate, short range wireless communication. The band rejection performance is realized by embedding an arc slot on the hexagon patch .Guideline for designing antenna with band rejection characteristic is described. The proposed antenna presents nearly omnidirectional radiation patterns and wideband impedance matching over the UWB frequency spectrum excluding the WLAN subband, indicating the proposed antenna is a good candidate for UWB wireless communications.
