A printed circuit notch antenna having at least two layers for providing remote wireless communication is disclosed. A wireless device containing the printed circuit notch antenna is also disclosed. The printed circuit notch antenna comprises a first ground plane conductor on a first layer of a printed circuit board; a second ground plane conductor on a second layer of the printed circuit board; a notch antenna formed in a portion of the first ground plane conductor. The notch antenna comprises a closed end, an opened end, and two elongate side portions between the closed end and the opened end. The printed circuit notch antenna also comprises a transmission line positioned on an opposite portion of the printed circuit board from the notch antenna. The transmission line crosses under the portion of the printed circuit board containing the notch antenna and indirectly couples to one of the two elongate side portions of the notch antenna, and the transmission line comprises an impedance-controlled circuit positioned below the notch antenna.
