It is found that by inserting exponential slots into both patches of the antipodal Vivaldi antenna a good matching can be achieved, specially for the lower bandwidth limit, without degradation of the other performances of the proposed antenna. The characteristics of this antenna have been studied numerically using a commercial simulator CST microwave studio.}, isbn = {978-1-4673-7602-0}, author = {Kanjaa, M. and EL Mrabee, O. and Khalladi, M. and Essaaidi, M.} }
