“…The authors decided to use a compact balun with a rectangular stub [9]. The configuration of the balun was already investigated by the authors [4], and it provided both good impedance matching and weak influence on the radiation patterns of the circular arm dipole. Photographs of the fabricated circuits are shown in Figs.…”

“…Generally, full-wave computer-aided design (CAD) environments that commonly apply the moment method [6] are currently used to design planar dipoles with arms of various shapes (circular [4], elliptical [5]). These professional tools permit to simulate more or less complicated shapes of the dipole arms since they use subdomain basis functions (e.g., rooftop functions), which is the result of the precise discretization of the space under consideration (i.e., metallic arms of the dipole).…”

A simple method of approximation of the elliptical patch with stepped-edge polygon is proposed as an introduction to wider studies over the planar ultrawideband (UWB) antennas. The general idea is to replace the elliptical patch with an equivalent polygonal patch, with minimum loss in the performance. The principles of the proposed method are presented in this letter, as well as the results of performed numerical studies and its experimental verification. A satisfying level of agreement of the parameters of the original antenna and its stepped-edge polygon version indicates that the proposed approximation can be applied without important loss of antenna performance.Index Terms-Dipole antennas, ultrawideband (UWB) antennas.

“…The authors have proposed a microstrip to CPS transition to match planar dipole antenna having an input impedance of 140 Ω. 16 Baker has presented his work on a multi-aperture biconical core based transmission line transformer to design a balun for low-frequency applications. 17 Moreover, patch antenna 18,19,20 can also be a potential candidate due to its advantages in terms of weight, size, and cost.…”

This paper presents ultrawide band (UWB) Cage Dipole Antenna, designed and developed for ultra high frequency band ground penetrating radar (GPR) system. The presented cage antenna consists of two thick diverging cages composed of 10 cylindrical metallic rods. It operates at 500 MHz center frequency and provides 105% impedance bandwidth for |S11| <−10 dB. Antenna has donut‐shaped radiation pattern and provides 2.6‐dBi gain at center frequency. Impedance variation of designed Cage dipole antenna has been matched using wideband lumped component‐based balanced to unbalanced (Balun) network. Integrated analysis of cage dipole antenna and Balun network has been carried out in 3D electromagnetic simulator and analyzed results are presented. Moreover, metallic mount with Teflon bush has been designed to support the cage dipole antenna during far‐field characterization and its effect has also been taken into account during the analysis. Time‐domain analysis of proposed Cage dipole has been carried out and its results are presented in detail. Presented cage dipole antenna provides suppressed late ringing, making it best suitable for GPR applications.
