Description
Summary:The main idea of this project is to design, develop and fabricate an Ultra Wideband Planar Antenna on FR4 printed circuit board. As UWB technology is promising for shortrange, high data rate wireless communications, high accuracy radar and imaging system, it has recently received great attention in academic and R&D sector for designing an antenna that can be utilized in allocated UWB frequency range of 3.1GHz to 10.6GHz. Furthermore UWB planar antenna has many advantages, including low profile of planar configuration, light weight, smaller in size and robust when mounted on rigid surface. The content in this thesis explains the basic antenna engineering and the method of antenna design and development for all relevant parameter optimization. The results of antenna simulation before fabrication and antenna measurement after fabrication are also discussed.
