Abstract
This article presents the design and analysis of conformal circular monopole antenna with split ring resonator to get frequency notch characteristics in the wideband. Split ring resonators placed on one side of the substrate and complementary split ring resonators placed on the other side of the substrate at defected ground structure, which yields the frequency notch characteristics with respect to the microstrip feeding. Dual notch band characteristics are obtained between 4–4.3 and 7.3–8.1 GHz. The analyzed conformal characteristic of the antenna supports excellent constant reflection coefficient characteristics over the band at different angles. The impedance and radiation characteristics of the antenna model is analysed in simulation along with unit cell analysis of the SRR and the measured results are providing good agreement with them.
