摘要
In this study, a modified antipodal Vivaldi antenna (AVA) with low cross-polarisation is proposed for ultra-wideband communications. The bandwidth offered by conventional single petal AVA is enhanced by adding another petal. This dual petal antenna occupies a small volume of 60 x 60 x 0.8 mm(3) and provides operating bandwidth from 2.4 GHz to frequencies >14 GHz. The proposed antenna configuration provides low cross-polarisation level which is 5 dB and an average group delay variation of 0.5 ns. The prototype antenna is fabricated and tested to validate the simulation results.
