Summary
In this paper, design and simulation of a wideband matching network for a broadband V-shaped square monopole antenna is presented. Matching network design is unavoidable in most cases even vital to facilitate a maximally flat power transfer gain for an antenna. In the work, the matching network design is done for a particular square monopole antenna with V-shaped coupling element that has essentially bandwidth increasing effect. The V-shaped antenna had been manufactured, tested and analyzed elaborately in a previous work. With this work, it is now equipped by a matching network. 'Real Frequency Technique' (RFT) is employed in matching network design. © 2013 IEEE.
