Cross-Slot Antenna with U-Shaped Tuning Stub for Ultra-Wideband Applications
A novel design of an ultra-wideband (UWB) slot antenna is presented. This antenna operates as a transmitter and receiver antenna. Effects of the antenna dimensional parameters are studied through experimental and simulation results. Design procedures are developed and verified for different frequenc...
