Wide-band printed dipole antenna

The design and development of an L-band printed dipole antenna. optimized for wide-band applications near first resonance, is reported. This design has achieved more than 48% impedance bandwidth (VSWR 2:1), without degrading its overall radiation efficiency

Novel Wide Band Printed Dipole Antenna

Design, development and experimental observations of a L: band printed dipole antenna is presented.Bandwidth enhancement is achieved by end-loading or the dipole arms. Using the present technique Impedance bandwidth van be enhanced up to 50% without degrading the efficiency of the antenna.
