N2 - A novel quadruple-notch UWB (ultrawideband) antenna for wireless applications is presented. The antenna consists of a decagonal-shaped radiating part with Sierpinski square fractal slots up to iteration 3. The ground part is truncated and loaded with stubs and slots. Each individual stub at the ground plane creates/controls a particular notch band. Initially, a UWB antenna is designed with the help of truncation at the ground plane. Miniaturization in this design is achieved with the help of Sierpinski square fractal slots. Additionally, these slots help improve the UWB impedance bandwidth. This design is then extended to achieve a quadruple notch by loading the ground with various rectangular-shaped stubs. The final antenna shows the UWB range from 4.21 to 13.92 GHz and notch frequencies at 5.02 GHz (C-band), 7.8 GHz (satellite band), 9.03, and 10.86 GHz (X-band). The simulated and measured results are nearly identical, which shows the efficacy of the proposed design.
