Abstract
This letter presents an ultra wide-band (UWB) antenna with a printed monopole structure fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW) line. The antenna is analyzed by using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method and genetic algorithm (GA) to achieve an ultra wide bandwidth characteristic. The measured frequency response shows an impedance bandwidth of 7.25GHz or 104.7% over 3.3 to 10.55GHz for VSWR less than 2.Keywords
