Title:
INTEGRATED COAXIAL NOTCH ANTENNA FEED
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/200616
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A novel system for supporting a plurality of notch antenna elements is disclosed. This system allows the creation of higher power ultra-wideband step notch arrays. The system also provides electrical connection to each of the notch antenna elements via respective coaxial cables or other direct connections. These coaxial cables connect to coaxial connectors disposed on a substrate that supports the notch antenna elements. Each coaxial connector is in electrical communication with one of the notch antenna elements. By replacing the printed circuit board traditionally used, higher power can be supplied to the notch antenna elements.
