Abstract
A planar Vivaldi antenna structure with a core element is proposed for high gain. Techniques to achieve a significant gain improvement over the full Ka (24-40.GHz) band are implemented; including a frequency-independent excitation method, the introduction of logarithmic ripple on the lateral edges and enclosing the antenna in a dielectric material.
