  • Abstract
    A double-sided printed bow-tie antenna array fed by balanced Schiffman phase shifter, which used as a reader antenna in ultra-wideband (UWB) location system, is proposed in this paper. The presented antenna has a impedance bandwidth of 3.4-4.4 GHz and a high gain of more than 5dB within the whole bandwidth. Good omnidirectional radiation pattern is obtained in the plane of θ = 15°. Good simulation results are achieved by HFSS.
