Divya Priya %J International Journal of Engineering Innovations and Research %D 2013 %I IJEIR %X The aim of this paper is to design and optimize the performance of log periodic toothed antenna for Ultra Wideband (UWB) Applications. The operating frequency of the antenna is 4-10GHz. The proposed method focuses to optimize the performance of the antenna by achieving the gain of 4.5dB, VSWR This antenna is simulated using ANSOFT-HFSS and the results are presented. %K Log Periodic Toothed Antenna %K LPTA %K UWB %K Aperture Rejection Method %U http://journals.indexcopernicus.com/fulltxt.php?ICID=1050607
