Abstract :
A reconfigurable band notch UWB antenna using EBG structure is proposed. Two EBG structures is positioned alongside the feed line of the UWB antenna. The EBG structures produce two band notched at 3.97 GHz and 5.51 GHz which covers C-band satellite communication system and WLAN. The proposed antenna is suitable for UWB systems that require reconfigurable band reject function.
