Abstract

A two‐element, planar Yagi antenna with closely spaced elements is reported. Multiple folding in the driver is used to boost up the low radiation resistance due to the close spacing between the driver and the director. The antenna dimensions are first optimized in wire form and then transferred into a printed version on PET film. A prototype planar monopole Yagi is built and measured at 1 GHz. The maximum realized gain of the antenna on 50‐μm PET film is measured to be 9.56 dB. Β© 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This paper proposes a method of constructing a logperiodic microstrip antenna. Log-periodic technique is considered to be useful for improving the characteristics of a microstrip antenna (MSA) which is narrow band in nature, without giving up the advantages of low profile and light weight. The radia
