Abstract

A novel broadband printed dipole antenna (PDA), named back to back C shape strips PDA is proposed. This antenna is designed with two C shape asymmetric strips separated by step shape feed gap. This antenna is then simulated and compared with step shaped feed PDA with two rectangular patches. Additionally, the various parameters linked with the proposed antenna design are well simulated and adequately determined. Experimental results show that the proposed back to back C shape strips PDA can operate at a frequency band from 483 MHz to 877 MHz in which the return loss is more than 7.36 dB. The simulated radiation patterns are omnidirectional in nature like a conventional dipole antenna. Particularly, the proposed antenna has a gain varying from 0 to 2.3 dB. Therefore, the proposed antenna is very much compatible to digital TV signal reception applications.
