Abstract |
|
|
| Antenna is very important in wireless communication system. Among the most prevalent antennas, Yagi-Uda antenna is widely used. To improve the antenna gain and directivity, design of antenna is always important. In this paper, the Yagi Uda antenna is modified by adding two more reflectors instead of single and the gain, directivity & radiation pattern were studied. This antenna is designed to give better gain in one particular direction as well as somewhat reduced gain in other directions. The direction of "reduced gain" and gain at particular direction are not controllable in Yagi Uda. This paper provides a design which modifies radiation pattern of Yagi as per user requirement. The experiment is carried out at 157 MHz and all readings are taken for vertical polarization, with the help of Radio Communication Monitor. |
