Abstract
A broadband design of the microstrip-fed modified quasi-Yagi antenna is presented. The two arms of the driving dipole are connected separately to two microstrip sections tapered from the feeding microstrip line and its truncated ground plane. The end points of the two tapered sections can be suitably adjusted to obtain a 10-dB return loss bandwidth more than 50%. Measured radiation patterns are end-fire and the in-band peak gains range from 3.9 to 7.2 dBi. Details of the antenna design and the experimental results are presented and discussed.
