<abstract>In this paper, ultra-wideband monopole antenna with dual band notched (3.6 GHz / 5.7 GHz) characteristics is presented. The antenna have triple bands (8 GHz to 13.31 GHz), having notch in two bands WiMAX (3.4 GHZ - 3.69 GHz), WLAN (5.15 - 5.825 GHz), and it covers C, X, F band and operates for 3 to 13.31GHz. The compact antenna is fabricated on FR4 substrate of size 32*36*1.6 mm and consists of Crescent shaped patch with modified ground structure. Antenna consists of an inverted U and I-shaped parasitic element and radiation slot with 50-Ω microstrip line. By introducing C- slot in the design, the author has obtained dual notch. In this design, E-plane is omnidirectional and H- plane is almost omnidirectional.</abstract>
