A Miniaturized Gain-Enhanced Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna and Its Array for 5G Communication Applications

In this paper, a miniaturized gain-enhanced antipodal Vivaldi antenna (AVA) with gradual corrugated edges (GCEs) and triangular metal directors (MDs) is investigated. Its operating frequency band is extended and the gain is improved at lower frequencies due to the use of GCEs. In addition, the E-pla...
