Ultra-Wideband Tightly Coupled Dipole Array Fed by a Tapering Meandered Balun

An ultra-wideband (UWB) phased array is presented operating from UHF to C-bands (0.14 to 5.85 GHz). This new design employs an integrated, compact tapered spline balun in conjunction with a triple-layer semi-resistive frequency selective surface (FSS) network. Notably, the integration of the meander...
