Abstract
In this paper, compact broad-band antenna using circular spiral slot and CPW (coplanar waveguide) feed is proposed. The proposed antenna is designed on the same plane of the substrate by using CPW fed structure, archimediean spiral slot structure. So it was achieved both the size of compact antenna and the broad band. A archimediean spiral slot structure is introduced for resonance of medium band operation. The distances of a CPW feeder line and a ground plane are modified for impedance matching and lower/higher band operation. The proposed antenna has a compact size ($8mm\;{\times}\;13mm$) and it is etched on the FR-4 (relative dielectric constant 4.4, thickness 0.8mm) dielectric substrate. The simulated impedance bandwidth (VSWR $\leq$ 2) and maximum gain of the proposed antenna are 5.98GHz (4.1GHz ~ 10.08GHz) and 3.97dBi, respectively. The measured impedance bandwidth (VSWR $\leq$ 2) and maximum gain of the proposed antenna are 6.02GHz (4.48GHz ~ 10.5GHz) and 2.68dBi, respectively. The simulation and measured result shows good impedance matching and radiation pattern over the interesting frequency bands. It can be applied to antenna of broad-band wireless communication system.
