Abstract: In this study report that the design of 6.1 GHz Ultra Wide Band (UWB) antenna for off body communication is fabricated and measured. The overall dimension of proposed antenna is 7×4×1 mm and mould by FR4 epoxy substrate material with dielectric loss tangent of 0.02. In this optimal design, the wide feeding slot has been introduced in this research to discover the wide bandwidth and carry out the VSWR<2. The parametric study has been analyzed with different dimensions of feeding slot to attain the bandwidth of >20% of its centre frequency. This proposed UWB antenna has been simulated and measured by High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) which shows that the return loss of -31.47 dB and its expose omni directional pattern. This low profile and compact design antenna is finest system for off body communication and also adoptable for LTE network communication.
