摘要
In this letter, a modified antipodal Vivaldi antenna is presented. A novel tapered slot edge (TSE) structure is employed in this design. The proposed TSE has the capacity to extend the low-end bandwidth limitation and improve the radiation characteristics in the lower frequencies. A prototype of the modified antenna is fabricated and experimentally studied as well. The measured results show reasonable agreement with the simulated ones that validate the design procedure and confirm the benefits of the modification.
