Abstract

A compact slotted Ultra Wide Band (UWB) antenna suitable for wireless Universal Serial Bus (USB) dongle application is designed and simulated using Ansoft HFSS14.0. Antenna design for USB dongle will be a challenging task due to its space constraint and it also needs to maintain good impedance and radiation performance across a wide operating bandwidth. Here this UWB antenna is designed by simply cutting notches and embedding slots in the patch in order to achieve multiple resonance having effective bandwidth of about 10.42 GHz (2.8 to 13.38GHz) with 3dBi of peak gain which covers operating band of WPAN using UWB. Gain is further enhanced by using electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) structure concepts. Overall size of UWB antenna is 11x15x0.8mm3 which is very suitable for USB Dongle device.
