초록
A compact planar log-periodic dipole array (LPDA) antenna operating from 0.55 to 9 GHz with high measured gain is proposed to be implemented in a reverberation chamber as a source antenna. To minimise the total size of the LPDA antenna, variants of top-loading techniques are utilised, and a much smaller spacing factor is opted to specify the spacing between the elements. However, miniaturisation of the LPDA antenna limits the antenna's wideband characteristics over the desired range of frequencies. Hence, a feedline meander and a trapezoidal stub are incorporated into the design as impedance matching techniques to effectively enhance the bandwidth performance especially for the lower band of the antenna's operating frequency range. The LPDA antenna exhibits radiation patterns with and without a radome having the measured gain ranging from 2.48 to 7.89 dBi and from -1.20 to 7.94 dBi, respectively.
