  • Abstract
    This paper presents a tuneable Antipodal Vivaldi antenna by employing symmetrically corrugated ripples on the frontier of the antenna in order to improve the radiation performance. This configuration is able to produce good input match, low dispersion, high gain, small sidelobe level and constant radiation pattern of 10±1.5 dB over the frequency band.
