Two composition (circular and rectangular shaped radiating elements) are presented. The slots and step-shaped are integrated in the radiating elements to improve the impedance matching characteristics of the antennas. Two feeding techniques (microstrip and coplanar waveguide feeds) are performed to couple the electromagnetic waves. Both the two antennas shows promising performance for UWB applications. Numerical and exploratory strategies are performed to exhibit and discuss about the proposed designs.
