Abstract
A printed monopole antenna for UWB applications is presented in this paper. The monopole has a circular sector shape and is excited using a CPW feed. Quasi fractal elements in the form of triangular slots of varying dimensions are incorporated in the circular secto disc for obtaining the UWB behavior. The measured impedance bandwidth is from 4 GHz and extends well beyond 12 GHz. The measured radiation patterns of the antenna are nearly omni directional in the H-plane and dumb bell shape in the E-plane.
