log-periodic dipole antenna, log-periodic dipole antenna arrayAbstract
article introduces the novel designs of antenna arrays with wideband log-periodic dipole (LPD) radiators for the frequency range 0.7…12 GHz. Main focus is made on characteristics and design features of pyramidal type and linear 45º inclined configurations of antenna arrays from LPD radiators. Numerically obtained and measured results of considered structures as well as their discussion are included.References
