The allocation of the 3.1-10.6 GHz spectrum by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for Ultra Wideband (UWB) radio applications has presented many exciting opportunities and challenges for the researchers in academia and industry for the exploitation of several novel antenna design suitable for UWB communication. The successful transmission and reception of short pulses used for UWB communication that occupies the entire 3.1-10.6 GHz spectrum require an antenna with characteristics like linear phase, low dispersion and VSWR ≤ 2 throughout the entire band. Linear phase and low dispersion are marked by low values of group delay and is imperative for transmitting …
