Abstract :
The paper describes a parametric analysis approach to design and configure a printed dipole antenna and its development methodology in S Band. The dipole radiators and balun in their strip forms have been printed on both sides of a substrate and embedded inside a compact radome for airborne application with omni radiation coverage in the yaw plane. The approach is based on identifying various design parameters, critically analyzing their effects and tailoring the geometry of the balun uniquely to arrive at a compact and optimized solution.
