|
|
Hi community;
I need to design and implement an UWB Printed Planar Antenna that works on any frequency within its range (3.1-10.6 GHz). I have read some good books related to this topics and some other papers. My question is: do you know a book or a web site where I can get the design equations to carry out this project?
The shape of it, could be any.
I really appreciate any help from you.

A printed antenna is pretty ambiguous.
If you want a 2D antenna that can be printed on a circuit board and you have no real volume constraints, then the antenna you want is something like the vivaldi antenna:

This antenna should have sufficient bandwidth to cover the very large band you want. You can try scaling the specific antenna shown on that page to the frequencies of interest.
If you wanted a UWB patch antenna, that is going to be virtually impossible to design given your bandwidth. Generally you'll have to play with your allowable geometry to determine what is feasible. |
