“…[10] Some consistent empirical design rules were proposed for linearly tapered slot antennas, constant-width slot antennas, and exponentially tapered slot antennas (ETSAs). Various TSAs on dielectric substrates have been investigated to maximize the operating bandwidth [11][12][13] to enhance the forward gain [14][15] or to implement a reconfigurable antenna. [16] In [17], a double ETSA with lumped resistors was designed for a ground-penetrating radar application.…”

A dual-broadband Spidron fractal tapered slot antenna is proposed for radar applications in the S and X bands. Dual-Spidron fractal patches are symmetrically arranged adjacent to each other, and a slot is etched from the central section of the patch to form a feeding slot. A microstrip-to-slotline transition is used to excite the tapered aperture of the Spidron fractal patch. The proposed antenna is fabricated and tested, and has compact dimensions of 35.8 mm Â 24 mm (0.358 λ 0 Â 0.24 λ 0 ). The measured À10 dB reflection bandwidths for the lower and upper frequency bands are 39.42% (2.75-4.10 GHz) and 34.74% (7.85-11.15 GHz), respectively. The measurements also indicate that the proposed antenna exhibits two types of radiation patterns, namely, a near omni-directional pattern in the lower band and a directional pattern in the upper band. The measured peak gains range from 0.4 to 2.97 dBi in the lower band and from 1.42 to 5.52 dBi in the upper band.

“…Table Ш lists out the comparison between the proposed antenna and other published related antennas. From Table Ш, the proposed TSERC structure Vivaldi antenna is smaller in dimensions than the conventional Vivaldi antennas as reported in [11][12][13][14][15]. In addition, the comparative results show the improvement in directivity of the proposed antenna at 1GHz and 2GHz.…”

“…Some of the recently reported antennas are listed in Table 2 with their dimensions in terms of free space wavelength ' 0 ' and percentage bandwidth. It is noticed from the comparison in Table 2, that the electrical dimension of the proposed antenna smaller as compared to other referred antennas [11][12][13], but showing large impedance bandwidth from 1 GHz to 35 GHz. A fabricated prototype is developed and measured |S 11 | dB is shown in Fig.…”
