Abstract :
A new RVD has been designed. The new RVD has curved arms and is loaded with a modified Wu-King resistive profile. The RVD showed improved responses in a broad range of frequency, which make it more suitable to use in a GPR system than a typical RVD. One way of implementing the antenna was shown.
