Abstract: In this article, a miniaturized rectangular printed antenna that meets the ultrawideband (UWB) characteristics in terms of bandwidth and reflection coefficient is proposed. The designed antenna with dimension of 25×16 mm2 (L × W) was fabricated on FR-4 epoxy dielectric with relative permittivity of 4.4. SMA female connector is used for feeding with characteristic impedance of 50 O. The antenna exhibits good UWB characteristics and has the capability of operating between 3.92 to 11.32 GHz. The proposed antenna has omnidirectional radiation pattern on most of the operating band. The measured reflection coefficient of the proposed antenna is compared with the simulated one; good agreement is observed. Also, radiation pattern and gain of the antenna are presented. All simulations are carried out using the EM commercial simulators, HFSS, and CST.
