Abstract
This work presents a high gain Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Antipodal Antenna (AA) with four paddle shaped stubs, an elliptical parasitic patch and a elliptical cylindrical dielectric enclosure utilizing a systematic approach, for microwave imaging of concealed metal objects. Initially the paddle shaped stubs are designed and their performance are optimized. Then, the elliptical patch is added to improve the high frequency performance. Lastly an elliptical cylindrical dielectric was introduced to further enhance the antenna performance. The proposed antenna provides simulated return loss of < 10 dB over 1.3 - 14 GHz with a simulated peak gain of 13.2 dBi at 10 GHz. © 2021 IEEE.
