Abstract

In this paper, a novel log-periodic cantor dipole antenna(LPCDA), which is composed of the cantor-dipole elements instead of the existing dipole elements, is proposed. The proposed antenna makes possible the antenna miniaturization by using the cantor-dipole elements. To investigate the reliability of the proposed antenna, LPCDA is designed and analyzed at $1{\sim}4GHz$ band and compared with LPDA(Log-Periodic Dipole Antenna) characteristics. It is shown that although the elements of LPCDA are 13.3% shorter than LPDA, the gain increases about 2dB and VSWR is less than 2 in at the upper band.

본 논문에서는 기존 다이폴 소자 대신에 칸토어(Cantor) 다이폴 소자로 구성된 새로운 타입의 대수 주기 칸토어 다이폴 안테나(LPCDA: Log-Periodic Cantor Dipole Antenna)를 제안하였다. 제안된 안테나는 칸토어 다이폴 소자를 사용함으로써 안테나의 소형화를 실현하였다. 제안된 안테나 타당성을 확인하기 위하여 $1{\sim}4GHz$의 주파수에서 동작하는 LPCDA를 설계하여 기존의 LPDA(Log-Periodic Dipole Antenna) 특성과 비교하였다. 그 결과, LPCDA는 LPDA보다 소자의 길이가 13.3%, 짧으면서도 상한 주파수 부근에서 이득은 약 2dB 증가하고, VSWR은 2이하로 나타났다.
