Summary:
A broadband printed monopole antenna based on the variation of the conductivity along its length is proposed.. The result indicates that a non-monotonous repartition provides interesting performances in terms of impedance bandwidth but also concerning antenna gain. The achievement of the method is demonstrated through its application, using the carbon fibers to perform this conductivity variation. Monopole antenna presents a large impedance bandwidth of 123% with an interesting gain. Measurement and simulation present a good agreement.
