  • Abstract
    A novel coplanar waveguide fed planar antenna with an extremely broad bandwidth in excess of 128% is presented. This comfortably covers the required bandwidth for ultra-wideband communication applications, and exhibits the required omnidirectional pattern characteristics. The antenna is also very small in size, only 0.3 lambda square at 3 GHz
