A broad-band resistively loaded V-antenna: experimental results

A broadband receiving antenna was realized using a resistively loaded thin-film V-monopole and a 500- Omega oscilloscope probe. The pulse-receiving performance of the antenna was evaluated in a time-domain antenna range, for various directions of the incident pulse. The antenna is capable of receivi...

Description
Summary:A broadband receiving antenna was realized using a resistively loaded thin-film V-monopole and a 500- Omega oscilloscope probe. The pulse-receiving performance of the antenna was evaluated in a time-domain antenna range, for various directions of the incident pulse. The antenna is capable of receiving a 520 ps electromagnetic pulse, incident within 45 degrees from the boresite direction, with good fidelity. The antenna was also tested in a transverse electromagnetic cell in the time and frequency domains. The frequency-domain receiving transfer function of the antenna was found to be within -57+or-3 dB in the 22 MHZ to 1.1 GHz frequency range.< >
