Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/7424This work describes the design and analysis of antenna monopole printed type. The initial geometry in the printed monopole antenna is of a regular hexagon, with 9 mm segments in length. The initial proposal is an antenna to serve the UWB range (3.1 to 10.6 GHz). To achieve a bandwidth satisfying the proposed problem, fractal curves (Peano curve and the Koch curve) were implemented in the geometry composition of the monopole and the ground plane, respectively, the introduction of these curves generate additional resonances, optimizing bandwidth and serving the specifications of UWB systems. To perform the analyzes, CST Microwave Studio ® software was used, which is based on finite integration method in the time domain, having the computing environment to simulate the antenna properties and the electromagnetic behavior of the same as the results of these simulations, a new frequency range going from 2.74 to 11.5 GHz is presented, satisfying the range of UWB systems. As a last stage, a prototype was made and the measurements with the proper equipment to compare the measured results with the simulated were realized, covering a frequency range from 3.2 to 13.5 GHz, where the range of results shows concordance with the simulated, validating the model.Acesso AbertoAntenas de banda ultra-largaAntena fractalPerda de retornoCurva de KochCurva de peanoFractal antennaUltra wide bandReturn lossPeano curveKoch curveDissertaçãoCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA ELETRICA::TELECOMUNICACOES::TEORIA ELETROMAGNETICA, MICROONDAS, PROPAGACAO DE ONDAS, ANTENAS
