A printed trapezoid dipole broadband antenna
The feed part which uses gradually changing structure usually has wider impedance bandwidth. A kind of trapezoid dipole antenna that is similar to the parallel dual-feed is analyzed in the essay. Adopting the software of CST Microwave to simulate how the structure parameter of antenna influences impedance character, a type of dipole antenna working within 1.85∼3.75GHz is designed. The simulation results and experiments indicate that the antenna possesses wide impedance bandwidth. Meanwhile, the pattern is approximately omni-directional within the frequency band. So the antenna can be used in many fields, such as PCS, WLAN, WiMAX, and so on.
