Broadband Antennas

Abstract

Apart from the sleeve monopole, this chapter discusses other broadband antennas as well, and the performance evaluation in terms of various measured and simulated parameters is also illustrated. This chapter will help antenna engineers get a better understanding of the antennas discussed and make a comparison with other broadband antennas. The broadband antennas that have been discussed in this chapter include: Low-profile sleeve monopole antenna, Dual-sleeve monopole antenna, Disc-conical sleeve monopole antenna, Wideband with dumbbell-shaped open sleeve antenna, Wideband unidirectional patch antenna with G-shaped strip feed, Wideband folded bowtie antenna with G-shaped strip feed and tuning stubs, Wideband bowtie antenna with inverted L-shaped coupling feed and tuning stubs.
