Abstract
There are various patch antennas used for Wi-Fi and Wi-MAX applications. But, the problems with them are low gain, low power handling capacity and hence, conventional yagi-uda antennas are used. Conventional yagi-uda antennas are used in applications where high gain and directionality are required. Generally, numbers of directors are added to increase gain of these antennas. But, here we present modified yagi-uda antennas, in which the gain and bandwidth can be enhanced by not adding additional directors. In this paper, we initially discuss the designs of various yagi-uda antennas with uniform, non-uniform spacings between directors and then we discuss their gain and bandwidth enhancement by various approaches. Simulation results show that, the proposed techniques can enhance gain as well as bandwidth when compared with the traditional yagi-uda antennas.
