Design of log‐periodic dipole array inspired antenna with very wide bandwidth

Abstract: A parallel‐strip line fed antenna with very wide bandwidth is presented in this article. This wideband antenna is designed as a combination of two individual antenna elements that are connected in a way inspired by the log‐periodic antenna array technique. To miniaturize the size of the structure, metamaterial‐based antennas are used as the basic radiating elements. The proposed antennas are designed on FR4 substrate and measured results show that it has a very wide bandwidth from 0.68 to 120 GHz with a VSWR <… Show more

“…Frequency independence suggests that the antenna should have good and similar performance in terms of the parameters like impedance, VSWR, and radiation pattern throughout the frequency band . Several log periodic arrays have been reported previously by researchers, such as rectangular patch array, slot antenna array, dipole array, and so on . But the major drawback of these arrays is their size.…”
