Study of Maria-Vaz Antenna Configuration

The aim of this article is to design an antenna similar to the "Karchenko-Marconi-Emanuel Vaz Antenna", but planar using a fractal. To do this, the rings of a microstrip square configuration are folded at the junction and positioned parallel to each other. This study is based on the philosophy of matryoshka antennas, with some refinements. In particular, each ring is considered as a U-shaped antenna, and the frequency values of these two philosophies are compared with those of other commonly used methods. The execution of a FSS further clarifies the interest of the Maria Vaz Antenna. The theoretical study of the electric field employed in this case is simple and generalizable.

Abstract

The aim of this article is to design an antenna similar to the "Karchenko-Marconi-Emanuel Vaz Antenna", but planar using a fractal. To do this, the rings of a microstrip square configuration are folded at the junction and positioned parallel to each other. This study is based on the philosophy of matryoshka antennas, with some refinements. In particular, each ring is considered as a U-shaped antenna, and the frequency values of these two philosophies are compared with those of other commonly used methods. The execution of a FSS further clarifies the interest of the Maria Vaz Antenna. The theoretical study of the electric field employed in this case is simple and generalizable.
