Abstract (en)

A dielectric substrate single layer planar dipole antenna comprises at least a radiant dipolar element made of two strips (1) having any shape such as linear, spiral, meander or like, printed on the front side of a thin dielectric substrate. On the back side of the said substrate a planar balanced feeding structure (balun) is implemented using a slot (4) etched on a thin metallic patch locally performing as ground plane (2). <??>Two metallized via-holes or rivets (3) very near to the edges of said slot (4) connect the radiating strips (1) to the ground plane. The two via-holes are disposed symmetrically with respect to the slot centre. A third feeding strip (5), etched on the same side of the said radiating strips, bridges over the centre of said slot and is connected to the ground through a via-hole (3) very near the slot edge. This third strip (5) constitutes the unbalanced input port of the balanced antenna, suitable for connecting the inner conductor of a coaxial cable whose outer conductor can be directly or indirectly connected to the ground plane. <IMAGE>
