Abstract
Artificial Material Integrated Ultra-wideband Tapered Slot Antenna for Gain Enhancement with Band Notch Characteristics
Highlights
The traditional Vivaldi antenna is well known for its broadband characteristics with light weight, low cost, ease of fabrication and capable of integration with other electronics systems
It can be seen that the VSWR of the basic tapered slot antenna (TSA) and artificial material TSA are spiking up to 10 and 7 at 5.5 GHz, respectively
It is confirmed that the wireless local area network (WLAN) band is suppressed by using split ring resonator (SRR)
Summary
The traditional Vivaldi antenna is well known for its broadband characteristics with light weight, low cost, ease of fabrication and capable of integration with other electronics systems. This antenna has another name called tapered slot antenna (TSA) [1]. Due to the end fire radiation, TSAs are used to provide a directional radiation pattern with simple structures. These types of antennas are widely used in both military and medical applications, e.g. microwave imaging, see through-wall (STW), ground penetrating radar, tumor detection, cancer detection etc. The size and circuit complexity of the antenna will increase
