Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to design and optimize the performance of log periodic toothed antenna for Ultra Wideband (UWB) Applications. The operating frequency of the antenna is 4-10GHz. The proposed method focuses to optimize the performance of the antenna by achieving the gain of 4.5dB, VSWR < 2 and directivity of 5.1dB by using FR4 substrate of relative permittivity 4.4 and dissipation factor 0.013. The substrate dimension is taken as 41.9x41.9x1.6 mm. Further, aperture band rejection technique is used to improve the antenna parameters like radiation pattern, directivity and gain. This antenna is simulated using ANSOFT-HFSS and the results are presented.
