Summary:
In this paper, a novel printed disc monopole antenna with a notched ground plane for UWB applications is presented. Two different shapes are proposed for the notch: a triangular one and an exponential curved one. By choosing the suitable size of the notch, wide band operation can be obtained. The proposed antenna has an omni-directional pattern in the xy-plane and the influence of the notch on the radiation pattern is very small. These features are very attractive for UWB applications.
