Abstract
A cavity backed double-sided printed dipole antenna is presented, which provides broadband performance with compact antenna size. Along with the detail simulated results, the measured results of the fabricated prototype antenna are presented, showing the impedance bandwidth (VSWR ≤ 2) of 14.4%, from 1.68GHz to 1.94GHz. Its radiation characteristics are also measured, exhibiting a stable broadside radiation pattern over a wider bandwidth. The proposed antenna has wide potential applications in conformal phased arrays.
