Summary:
The principle of self-complementary is applied to develop the traditional planar monopole antenna into a dipole antenna with frequency range which exceeds UWB requirements. The proposed design has compact, planar, and simple shape arranged in self-complementary manner. The self-complementary structure reduced the imaginary part of the antenna impedance, resulting in wider bandwidth. The proposed antenna showed ?10dB return loss bandwidth extending from 1.87 GHz up to 17.77 GHz.
