Summary:
This paper proposes a new broadband folded notch antenna with a parasitic notch on a rectangular planar conductor. The parasitic notch can provide current distribution on a folded notch antenna similar to current distribution on an axially symmetric quasi-self-complementary antenna, which has an extremely broadband characteristic. In the simulation, it is shown that frequency bandwidth of the folded notch antenna is increased by 1.5 times by the use of the parasitic notch when the parasitic notch is located based on the current distribution on the axially symmetric quasi-selfcomplementary antenna.
