| description | This study presents a compact ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW) with huge bandwidth for the demands of modern wireless communities. To overcome some technical limitations of the employed substrate and UWB antenna design, a slotted patch resonator was used to create and simulate this antenna based on Locked-Key topology. It has been printed on a 1.5 mm-thick FR4 substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.4. A feeder with characteristic impedances of 50 Ω has been employed. A CST electromagnetic simulator has been employed to simulate and analyze the antenna design. It is operated within the UWB spectrum with a bandwidth of 10.354 GHz, spanning 3.581 to 14 GHz. The overall surface area is 27 × 25 mm<sup>2</sup>. The gain and maximum efficiency within UWB are better than 3 dBi and 82%, respectively. The antenna is fabricated, and the simulated results are correlated with the measured ones. Finally, the equivalent circuit models for the antenna and rectifier circuit are simulated and measured. |
