A Wideband, 5-50+GHz Tapered-Slot Antenna For Use in Handheld Test Equipment

an image of our technical paper

A lightweight, wideband tapered-slot antenna that uses an antipodal Vivaldi design and provides useable gain from ~5 GHz to in excess of 50 GHz is described.

Simulations and measurements are presented that show excellent agreement.

This antenna design is currently deployed in handheld test equipment.
