This paper presents a tapered slot-antenna(TSA) for optimal impulse-signal transmission in ultra-wide band(UWB). The proposed TSA provides radiates in end-fire direction, which meets an impulse-radio UWB(IR-UWB) system demands(e.g., low loss, thus less error throughout the UWB band). In order to minimize the pulse distortion, we used an wideband impedance transformer and a microstrip slotline. The pulse fidelity characteristics was evaluated with finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) analysis technique and pulse fidelity correlation equation. Approximately 93.89 % pulse fidelity was obtained between the two antennas in 0.5 m range. Additionally, derived chirp Z-transform algorithm enables us to utilize the zoom-in option on the pulse signal in few nano-seconds below. Thus, it is possible to analyze the pulse signal distortion, delay or dispersion characteristics.

An UWB(Ultra Wide Band) antenna with band rejection characteristics is designed and implemented. A planar radiation patch with slot, parasitic elements on both sides of strip and ground plane on back side consist the proposed antenna. The slot in the radiation patch and parasitic elements contribute corresponding bands rejection characteristics. The slot contributes for WiMAX(World interoperability for Microwave Access, 3.30~3.70 GHz) band rejection and parasitic elements contribute for X-Band(7.25~8.395 GHz) rejection. Ansoft's HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator) was used to design the proposed antenna and performance simulations. Simulation result showed VSWR(Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) less than 2.0 for UWB band except for dual rejection bands of 3.30~3.86 GHz and 7.21~8.39 GHz. And VSWR measurement result for the implemented antenna shows less than 2.0 for 3.10~10.60 GHz band except dual rejection bands of 3.25~3.71 GHz and 7.25~8.46 GHz.

In this paper, it is studied on wide radiating slot antenna's miniaturization for ultra wide-band(UWB) technologies and notch structure to prevent interference between UWB systems and existing wireless systems for using Wi-Fi service of IEEE standards 802.11 a/n. Proposed antenna that wide slot is decreased from $\lambda/2$ to $\lambda/4$ length of resonant frequency has decreased by 72 % compared with conventional antenna. And optimized T-shaped CPW-fed stub has satisfied UWB bandwidth for 3.0~11.8 GHz. Then, creating 2-order Hilbert curve slot line in the stub's patch area, 4.9~5.6 GHz that centered frequency is 5 GHz is eliminated. Finally, the designed antenna constructed on FR4-epoxy has $20{\times}15\;mm^2$ dimension. The measured results that are obtained return loss under -10 dB through 3.2~11.8 GHz without Wi-Fi bandwidth, a linear phase characteristic, a stable group delay, and omnidirectional radiation patterns are presented.

In this paper, a non-offset longitudinal shunt slot excited by an asymmetry compound iris on the broad wall of a rectangular waveguide is presented as an element for a waveguide slot-array antenna(WSAA). By properly adjusting the iris dimension, a resonance of the slot at a desired frequency can be achieved. The proposed resonant slot has some advantageous properties, such as a wide range of normalized resonant conductance, and minimum change of phase in the waveguide at the resonance. In addition, when the slots are arrayed for a waveguide slot antenna, the unwanted cross-polarization level can be reduced because each slot is placed in a straight line. A $8{\times}1$ WSAA with -20 dB side-lobe level(SLL) is designed, fabricated, and tested experimentally. The measured results are well agreed with the simulated ones and have an SLL of -18.13 dB and a cross-polarization level of -48.85 dB at 9.41 GHz, which was improved by about 15 dB of that of the conventional longitudinal slot array antenna.

The printed wide band monopole antenna having characteristics of dipole by modified coplanar wave guide(CPW) ground plane is presented. We are called a slot-arm printed monopole antenna and investigated the effect of the surface currents of the radiator on ground plane. The proposed antenna is treated as two asymmetric dipoles with the included angle of $90^{\circ}$ degrees which lie along Z-direction symmetrically. It is observed that the effect of the surface currents on the radiation patterns is similar to that of the corresponding dipole. The length and width of the ground plane correspond the radius and length of the dipole respectively. This approach is also valid to general printed monopole antennas. The simulation impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna the range of 2.4 to 4.6 [GHz] for a voltage stand wave ratio (VSWR)${\leq}$2 and got pick gain of 6 [dBi]. So the proposed antenna is satisfied the requirement of the industry science medical (ISM) band operation.

In this study, we tried to find the correlation of the parameters and dual resonance of U-slot microstrip patch antenna with L-shaped Inset-feed structure and design broadband antenna using them. In the first step, we classified cases where dual resonance occurs through changes in antenna parameters that affect antenna performance. In the second step, we correlated each antenna parameter to the location and intensity of the resonance point, and 3 dB bandwidth. Next, antenna simulation confirmed the process of designing to have wide bandwidth using the correlation in the second step previously presented in the U-slot antenna case with narrow bandwidth. Finally, we fabricated a designed antenna and demonstrated the validity of antenna bandwidth broadening through the correlation analysis.
