Abstract

A microstrip‐fed printed bow‐tie antenna is presented in order to achieve wide bandwidth, high gain, and size reduction. A comparison between the bow‐tie and the quasi‐Yagi (dipole and director) antennas shows that the bow‐tie antenna has a wider bandwidth, higher gain, lower front‐to‐back ratio, lower cross‐polarization level, and smaller size. Two‐element arrays are designed and their characteristics are compared. The bow‐tie antenna yields lower coupling for the same distance between elements. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Two wideband tapered slot antennas are designed, fabricated, and tested. The first antenna, which is fabricated on a high dielectric constant substrate (e r 5 10.2), shows a measured return loss of better than 10 dB from 1.6 to 12.4 GHz (7.7:1 bandwidth), and an antenna gain varying from 3.6 to 7.8

## Abstract In this paper, the regular microstrip dipole antenna shape is modified by adding upper and lower triangular patches, which makes it look like a rhombus. The rhombus shape is chosen because of its wideband characteristics over the rectangular one. The presented antenna provides a wide ba

An efficient FDTD approach, which uses the modified ( ) locally conformal finite-difference time-domain method MCFDTD and the concept of symmetry plane, for the analysis of center-fed bow-tie microstrip antennas is presented. The use of MCFDTD enables us to choose the number of cells along the anten

In this paper, a modified microstrip-fed dipole antenna is presented to improve the stability of the radiation patterns and increase the usable bandwidth. The proposed antenna consists of two parallel dipoles of different lengths to obtain two main resonances. The antenna produces almost similar rad
