Improved radiation characteristic of balanced antipodal vivaldi antenna in array configuration

H-plane array configuration of different elements of balance antipodal Vivaldi antenna is presented in this paper. The configuration of an antenna is based on the improvement in radiation characteristics of BAVA. The use of two and four elements placed in h-plane configuration is considered. Eac...
