3.5/5.5 GHz dual band-notch ultra-wideband slot antenna with compact size

A compact dual band-notch ultra-wideband polygon slot antenna with two parasitic slits is presented. The antenna is as small as 16 × 25 × 0.8 mm. The proposed antenna yields an impedance bandwidth of 3.1-10.6 GHz with VSWR < 2, except for the bandwidths of 3.33.9 GHz for WiMAX and 5-6 GHz for WLAN. The antenna has been successfully simulated, designed and measured, showing good impedance matching, stable gain and near omnidirectional radiation patterns.
