Abstract :
The author presents a miniaturized log-periodic dipole array using a meander element for each dipole arm. A meander section consists of a zig-zag path intended to reduce the resonant length. By this technique a 35 percent reduction in size is obtained for the dipole elements of the array. The miniature array is compared with the full-size version, and an overview of size reduction methods is given
