Summary:
This paper presents an ultra-wideband diversity antenna printed on a PCB. The antenna consists of two squares with an equilateral right-angled triangle which are orthogonally and symmetrically printed on a PCB with a slotted ground plane. A parametric study is conducted to examine the effects of the slots on the impedance matching and isolation. The simulated and measured results show that the proposed antenna is capable of providing good port isolation of |S21| <20 dB across the operating bandwidth of 3.1 GHz-6 GHz for a 10-dB return loss with pattern diversity.
