Design of ultra-wideband antenna matching networks

In this review paper, modern methods, so called the real frequency techniques to design broadband matching network are covered, a design roadmap is given with relevant recommendations. Measured performances of the recently designed and manufactured ultra-wideband matching circuits are outlined for various applications.
