  • Antenna comprising two separate wideband notch regions on one coplanar substrate
    Patent number: 6246377
    Abstract: A broadband transmit/receive antenna apparatus which operates at high frequencies and provides for two separate wideband tapered notch regions formed on one coplanar substrate. The tapered notch regions function as radiators for the transmission and reception of electromagnetic signals. The simple and compact design for the broadband antenna permits the transmission and reception of high frequency omnidirectional or directional radiation patterns. The broadband antenna interfaces with an an integrated circuit such as an ASIC which provides a series of pulsed signals and is resident on the antenna. The design of the broadband antenna provides for an optional stop notch to separate the transmitting portion of the antenna from the receiving portion of the antenna. Additionally, the antenna provides for impedance matching by locating transmission lines at an appropriate location with respect to the tapered notch radiators.
