Ultra-wideband antipodal vivaldi antenna for radar and microwave imaging application

In this an ultra-wideband antipodal Vivaldi antenna among end fire radiation patterns function at UWB (3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz) frequency range for radar and microwave imaging application is proposed. This article presents the designing of two different types of antipodal Vivaldi antennas. First is conv...
