Design of fork and slotted circular ultra wide band (UWB) antenna

In this project, two different shapes of Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) antennas have been proposed. Low profile, light weight and reasonable cost microstrip fork shape and slotted circular patch antenna have been selected to meet UWB communication systems requirements. Large bandwidth is considered as main...
