Small and Broadband Planar Antennas for UWB Wireless Communication Applications

  • Chapter

Abstract

Due to the unique features of ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless communication systems, the antenna design with small size and broad band-widths for transfer response and systems gain are required. A novel rolled planar antenna is proposed to meet the requirements for omni-directional UWB wireless communication applications.
