A multiple band-notched planar monopole antenna for multiband wireless systems is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a wideband planar monopole antenna and the multiple U-shape slots, producing band-notched characteristics. In order to generate two band-notched characteristics, a three U-shaped slot configuration is proposed. This technique is suitable for creating an ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with narrow frequency notches or for creating multiband antennas. A summary of the work presented in the paper "Multiple Band-Notched Planar Monopole Antenna for Multiband Wireless Systems" [1] is given especially with respect to the simulations using CST MICROWAVE STUDIO (CST MWS). The excellent agreement between the measurement and simul
