| Abstract | A low-profile, low cost reconfigurable antenna with on-demand single- or dual-band rejection capability for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications is presented. A modified monopole structure is integrated with an arc-shaped slot and two open-ended L-shaped stubs to realise the band rejection. The antenna operates in four modes: a full UWB (3.1–10.6 GHz) coverage antenna, a UWB antenna with a single-band WiMax or wide local area network (WLAN) rejection, and a UWB antenna with dual-band WiMax/WLAN rejection. On-demand individual and simultaneous band-rejections are implemented by controlling the arc-slot and L-stubs using three PIN diodes. Thus, the adopted control technique is quite easy and requires low operational power (approximately 40 mW max.). Details of the design process and reconfiguration mechanism are presented. The band-rejection function is explained using equivalent circuits and surface current distribution at each mode. A prototype is built on the FR4 substrate and tested to validate the performances. The antenna exhibits stable radiation characteristics and almost flat gain (average 4 dBi) responses across the whole band, while significantly weak radiation and gain reduction (;7 dB) are achieved at the rejected bands. Therefore, this antenna is suitable for high-performance UWB systems in WiMax/WLAN dense environments with the aim to improve signal quality, system capacity, and communication link efficiency. |

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.
