Abstract
A low-cost wideband radiating element for EW (electronic warfare) and radar array antenna applications is reported. This printed end-fire bunny-ear element is fed by a balanced slot line, and it can operate over 0.5 to 18 GHz with very low loss in an isolated environment. The input transition, the feed line, and the launching section of this element are essentially TEM (transverse electromagnetic) structures. The element was scaled and used in an L-band array with 50% instantaneous bandwidth.Keywords
