In this article, a microstrip‐fed planar monopole antenna incorporating a lobster‐shaped resonant structure, which is etched on its back plane is presented.Simulated Impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is ∼115% over an ultra‐wideband frequency range between 3 and 11.2 GHz satisfying FCC's frequency band. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
