Abstract | Summary form only given. Many planar antennas have been proposed for UWB system. The slot antenna is widely sought of for UWB applications. Various types of slot antennas have been recommended; such as circular, square, elliptical slot and different tuning stubs of rectangular, circular, and tapered shapes have been implemented for enhancing the bandwidth of antennas (Rezaul Azim, Mohammad Tariqul Islam, Norbahiah Misran, IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters, Vol. 10, 2011). In addition, adding a surface with reactive impedance could help as well to widen the bandwidth. Compared to the bandwidth of a planar monopole antenna, typically, the bandwidth of a slot antenna is relatively narrower. However, the benefits of slot antenna include stable bi-directional radiation pattern and gain flatness over the band. Recently, we successfully developed an iron shaped slot antenna with a fork shaped tuning stub with a very wide bandwidth. The design has been developed and fabricated on FR4 substrate with a thickness of 1.57 mm and . The overall dimension of the antenna is 100 × 100 mm2. The experiment showed that the proposed antenna achieves a good impedance match, a constant gain and stable radiation pattern in the range of 0.85 to 3.0GHz (i.e. 3.5:1). Further bandwidth enhancement has been achieved using Reactive Impedance Layers (RILs) on top of slots antennas (Hossein Mosallaei, and Kamal Sarabandi, IEEE Transactions of Antennas and Propagation, Vol, 52, No. 9, Sept 2004). These layers are comprised of periodic either spirals, or split ring resonators (SRRs), or squares, etc. Generally, the period of the unit cell of the RILs is relatively small (<; 0.5λ) which would degrade the bandwidth, but in our implementation, we utilized a wider period of the RIL to keep the original bandwidth and to enhance the upper frequency range. The newly developed iron slot antenna with RIL with a periodic spiral layer of > 0.9λ spacing, demonstrated a slightly wider bandwidth from 0.81 to 3.29 GHz, which is 4:1 with almost the same gain of 6.5±0.5dB over the band. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
