Printed Slot Planar Inverted Cone Antenna for Ultrawideband Applications
TLDR
In this article, a planar inverted cone antenna (PICA) based wide-slot antenna is proposed for ultrawideband (UWB) with a double-layer substrate.Abstract:
A novel ultrawideband (UWB) printed wide-slot antenna is presented. The design is based on the planar inverted cone antenna (PICA), introduced by Suh. The presented design comprises PICA-like structures, etched from a double-layer substrate. Compared to the original PICA, it is lower in profile, more compact and maintains comparable performance. A prototype integrated in a printed circuit board and fed by a microstrip line is fabricated and measured. The results show that the proposed antenna provides at least 13:1 impedance bandwidth at 10-dB return loss.read more

Broadband CPW-fed square slot antennas with a widened tuning stub
TL;DR: By using a coplanar waveguide (CPW) feed with a widened tuning stub, a square slot antenna for broadband operation is presented in this paper, where the authors show that the impedance matching for the proposed antenna strongly depends on the location of the tuning stub in the square slot, and the impedance bandwidth is mainly determined by the width and length of the tuned stub.
