The invention discloses a small coplanar waveguide fed broadband antenna which comprises a dielectric substrate of rectangular structure, wherein the dielectric substrate is 1.6mm thick, a radiation patch, a feed network and earth plates are arranged on one side of the dielectric substrate respectively, three-level staircase structures integrated with the radiation patch are symmetrically disposed on the left and right sides of the radiation patch, the lower end of the radiation patch is connected with the feed network, the earth plate are symmetrically disposed on the left and right sides of the feed network, and a tuning stub which is integrated with the earth plate is arranged on the earth plate in a corresponding mode. The working band of the small coplanar waveguide fed broadband antenna covers 8.6 to 12.1 GHz, and the broadband antenna achieves good impedance matching within effective bandwidths. In addition, the broadband antenna is simple in structure, small in size, easy to produce, suitable for wireless communication systems, and wide in application prospect.
