A novel ultrawideband monopole antenna with miniaturized size is proposed in this letter.The miniaturized antenna is obtained by splitting the symmetrical structure of a reference antenna. A 41.2% reduction in size can be realized. Its UWB‐related characteristics are simulated, experimentally verified and compared with the reference antenna. The results show that the proposed antenna has as good radiation performance as the reference antenna. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
