An octagonal shape monopole antenna with dual band-notched features used for ultra-wide band applications is presented. The monopole antenna has good impedance matching from 3.4 GHz to 12 GHz. The dual notched bands are achieved by using a U-shaped parasitic strip and meandered slot etched in the radiating patch. The first band notched is achieved using meandered slot to reduce the interference with WIMAX from 3.3 to 3.9 GHz. The second band notched is achieved using a U-shaped parasitic strip placed above the ground plane to eliminate the interference with WLAN from 5.2 GHz to 5.9 GHz. The proposed antenna is designed, simulated and measured. The measured result shows that the antenna structure achieves (VSWR < 2) from 3.2 to 10.8 GHz. Also, the simulated radiation pattern and current distribution at different frequencies are presented. The measured and simulated results confirm that the proposed antenna is suitable for UWB applications.
