Abstract

This study proposed the use of coplanar waveguide Ultrawide-band strawberry artistic shaped printed monopole (SAPM) antenna with a single-layer frequency selective surface (FSS) as the metallic plate to improve the gain of antenna application. The intersection of six cylinders is used to structure the strawberry artistic shaped radiating element, which leads to enhancing the antenna bandwidth. The proposed FSS reflectors used a 10 × 10 array with the unit cell of 6mm × 6mm in introducing a center-operating frequency. This study used the FR4 substrate with coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed to print the proposed antenna, which provided a wide impedance bandwidth of 8.85 GHz (3.05–11.9GHz) that covers the licensed Ultrawide-band. The proposed FSS transmitted a stop-band transmission coefficient, which is below −10 dB with the linear reflection phase over the bandwidth in the range from 3.05 GHz to 11.9 GHz. The UWB SAPM antenna with FSS reflector showed an improvement from 1.65 dB to 7.87 dB in the lower band and 6.3 dB to 9.68 dB in the upper band with an enhancement of 6.22 dB. The gain value is enhanced by the gaping between the antenna and FSS, which has an approximately constant gain response through the band, the gain is sustained among 7.87 dB to 9.68 dB. The total dimension of the antenna is 61mm×61mm×1.6 mm. The proposed antenna structure provides the directional and balanced far-field pattern, which is suitable for Ultrawide-band (UWB) applications and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) applications
