This article presents the design of a compact, low‐profile planar antenna with a circular radiator. With careful design of the radiator and ground plane, the antenna's low‐frequency range extends to 1.5 GHz, in addition to operating as an ultrawideband (UWB) antenna across the entire Federal Communications Commission allocated UWB range. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
