This communication enlightens design, simulation, fabrication and testing of a novel compact CSRR etched ultra-wideband (UWB) patch Antenna with quadruple Band refusal characteristics. To design the antenna, the dimensions are chosen as 28x18x0.8 mm3. The design was done on FR4 substrate of 4.4 dielectric constant, 0.02 loss tangent. The planned antenna contains chamfered bevel slot rectangular radiating material with a complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) etched on one side and an incomplete ground plane on the other side of the substrate. To understand band rejection characteristics, four circular slots with different radii are etched on the radiating material as CSRR to reject bands at Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) at 3.5 GHz, Indian national satellite (INSAT) at 4.6 GHz, wireless local area network (WLAN) services at 5.8 GHz, and Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) at 8.2 GHz. The rejected bands center frequencies are perfectly coupled at particular slots with different radii. This compact antenna is effective and useful for short areas and can be easily incorporated in small devices. The results show that the antenna has a bandwidth from 2.77 GHz to 13 GHz. This antenna gains a worthy harmony between the simulated and measured results.
