The effects of adding annular slots to solid conical antenna is described in this paper. The slots produced stop-bands with anti-resonant frequencies that are inversely proportional to the depth of the slots. The addition of double slots produced two distinct stop-bands. Prototype antennas were fabricated and measured to verify the simulated results.
