A circular slot CPW‐fed monopole antenna for ultrawideband (UWB) applications, with a size of (22 × 22 mm 2 ) is presented in this article. The antenna is mounted on FR4 substrate. This antenna is designed for operation across the entire UWB from 3 to 16 GHz. The proposed antenna has a reflection coefficient below −10 dB through the frequency band. Details of the proposed antenna and experimental results are discussed and parametric study is presented. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 56:1773–1776, 2014
