    Abstract :

    Lately, ultra wideband (UWB) technology has appealed a lot awareness each within the industry and academia as a result of its low rate, advantage to manage excessive data price and fairly low vigor requirement. A UWB log-periodic antenna is the key add-ons for realizing the UWB systems. We observe, nevertheless, that designing a UWB log-periodic antenna to provide high efficiency is rather more difficult than it is when dealing with the conventional narrowband antennas. This paper focuses on the survey and analysis of planar printed UWB log-periodic antenna, and provides some representative performance outcome of previously designed UWB antennas to illustrate the advantages as well as drawbacks of those antennas. Existing state of progress of UWB log-periodic antennas is reviewed in the paper and a few future trends of UWB antenna designs are provided. Additionally, the topics of wideband enhancement techniques for UWB log-periodic antenna.
