Abstract

In this paper a new UWB antenna structure is introduced for EMC applications. This antenna is the skeletal form of the teardrop antenna. As the frequency decreases, the usual teardrop antenna is not applicable since the weight of such antenna as well as its ground dimension considerably increases and such antenna has not a good resistance against the wind. The performance of the proposed antenna is compared with another member of wire UWB antennas´ family which is called wire biconical antenna. The results show that the proposed antenna, in comparison to the wire biconical one, has considerably better VSWR especially in the lower band of operation.
