At first, band-notching characteristics of monopole antenna with single EBG unit cell is considered as reference antenna. By loading PIN and varactor diodes within the EBG unit cell, multi band-notch functions of proposed antenna are investigated. Using proper combination of PIN diode switching (ON/OFF) and capacitance of varactor (2.35 to 0 pf), antenna is operated as dual, triple and quad bandnotched. Radiation characteristics for proposed UWB antenna are also reported which obeys perfect Bi-directional and Omni- directional patterns in E-plane and H-plane respectively. Using one PIN and varactor diode, the proposed antenna is operated in 12 different band-notching states with tunability in dual, triple and quad bandnotch frequencies. Therefore wireless applications wherein multi-functional band-notched operating states along with reconfiguration using a single antenna structure is desirable, proposed UWB antenna stands out to be very useful.","PeriodicalId":201547,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Indian Conference on Antennas and Propagation (InCAP)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122456879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
