Hybrid Utilization of Loading Techniques and Cavity Groove for Performance Enhancement of the UWB (2–18 GHz) Spiral Antenna

This paper presents, for the first time, the hybrid use of loading techniques (which involve terminating the spiral arms with different structures to give a resistive or capacitive effect) and a novel technique of cavity groove in order to enhance the performance of two-arm, cavity-backed, 2–18 GHz...
