Ultrawideband Composite Cavity-Backed Folded Sectorial Bowtie Antenna With Stable Pattern and High Gain

A composite cavity-backed folded sectorial bowtie antenna (FSBA) is proposed and investigated in this paper, which is differentially fed by an SMA connector through a balun, i.e. a transition from a microstrip line to a parallel stripline. The composite cavity as a general case, consisting of a coni...

description A composite cavity-backed folded sectorial bowtie antenna (FSBA) is proposed and investigated in this paper, which is differentially fed by an SMA connector through a balun, i.e. a transition from a microstrip line to a parallel stripline. The composite cavity as a general case, consisting of a conical part and a cylindrical rim, can be tuned freely from a cylindrical to a cup-shaped one. Parametric studies are performed to optimize the antenna performance. Experimental results reveal that it can achieve an impedance bandwidth of 143% for SWR les 2, a broadside gain of 8-15.3 dBi, and stable radiation pattern over the whole operating band. The total electrical dimensions are 0.66lambda m in diameter and 0.16lambda m in height, where lambda m is the free-space wavelength at lower edge of the operating frequency band. The problem about the distorted patterns in the upper frequency band for wideband cavity-backed antennas is solved in our work.
