Abstract

In this paper, We have designed, fabricated and measured a stacked planar antenna for Ultra-Wideband communication. Radiation parts of the antenna have exponential curve and fed by strip feeding network. We have used the HFSS of Ansoft to simulate the antenna. It was designed to work on a substrate Teflon of thickness 1.575mm and relative permittivity 3.2. The proposed antenna covered the entire UWB band( 3.1GHz $\sim$ 10.6GHz ) for S11$\leq$l0dB. Also the proposed antenna show a good characteristics, linear phase, omni -directional pattern lot UWB applications. Besides the measured results have a reasonable agreement with the simulated results.
