Compact SRR Loaded UWB Circular Monopole Antenna With Frequency Notch Characteristics

This paper presents the design of a compact split ring resonator (SRR) loaded coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed ultrawideband circular monopole antenna having frequency notch characteristics. The electromagnetic coupling of the SRR with the CPW yields the frequency notch. Fabricated prototypes were measured and compared with simulations and good agreement was obtained. The impedance and radiation plots confirm the suppression of the desired notch frequency. A theoretical formulation to calculate the notch frequency is also proposed and validated.
