The paper studies the design of ultra-wideband printed loop antenna based on the characteristic mode manipulated in a large frequency band. The structure of this antenna is very simple. The wide impedance bandwidth of 60% with |S11| < –10 dB (2.76–5.16 GHz) is obtained due to a simultaneous excitation of the significant antenna modes. A stable radiation pattern is also achieved within the frequency bandwidth. The antenna is designed on FR4 substrate and fed with 50 Ω coupled tapered transmission line.
