Bandwidth optimization of ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna

This project presents the design with optimum geometry of an UWB rectangular patch antenna. To achieve an UWB characteristic, a patch antenna is designed before proceeding to the bandwidth optimization technique for the proposed antenna. The configuration of patch antenna has a partial ground and ad...
