Abstract

The Log-Periodi Loop Antenna (LPA) is investigated as a new type of antenna, whose properties vary periodically with the logarithm of frequency, and provides wide bandwidth, broad beam width, and high gain. This antenna has smaller transverse dimensions than another antenna types. In this paper the analysis, design, and simulation of log periodic dipole antenna (LPDA) is presented, which is suitable and particular for mobile communication bands from 1150 MHz up to 2450 MHz. ZPLOTS simulation program shows acceptable results and confirm the theoretic basics.
