Abstract :
A novel broadband printed antenna element, the printed counterpart of a conventional TV UHF panel antenna with very large bandwidth, has been studied. A design method and realization are presented in the paper. More than one octave measured bandwidth with VSWR less then 1.8 and directivity between 9.0 and 11.0 dBi has been achieved. Properties of the radiator as an array element have also been investigated.
