Abstract :
A compact dual-linearly polarized UWB antenna was successfully designed and fabricated for continuous application over the VHF/UHF band. Repeatability of the design is shown by similar results from two separate design prototypes. Improved performance can be derived by better fabrication methods. The antenna design is currently being optimized for improved performance.
