A Novel SRR Slotted UWB Antenna with Dual Band-Notched Characteristics at WiMAX & WLAN Band

Abstract

A novel designed compact SRR slotted ultra-wideband antenna having dual bandnotched characteristics is achieved. The antenna consists of an inverted U-shaped slot on the ground plane and a radiation patch similar to the slot which is fed by a 50-Ω microstrip line. By etching two rectangular shaped split ring resonator slots on the radiation patch we obtained dual band-notched properties in the WiMAX (3.4-3.69 GHz) and WLAN (5.15-5.825 GHz) bands.
