In this paper, a new design for a Log-periodic antenna with omni-directional radiation pattern in the horizontal plane and broad-band characteristics is investigated. This antenna covers the 500 -3000 MHz band with VSWR < 3:1 and the gain better than 0 dBi with maximum deviation ±1.5 dB in the entire frequency bandwidth.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
