Abstract
A resistor loaded bow-tie antenna fed by Gaussian pulse which is generated by avalanche transistor Marx circuit is proposed in this paper. The Marx circuit generates very short pulse with high peak voltage and the width of the Gaussian pulse is 0.5 ns. The antenna has dimensions of 10 cm by 9 cm and is based on a dielectric substrate. The antenna with discrete exponential resistive loading minimizes the duration of the radiation pulse. The antenna has opposed structure whose two monopoles are separately placed on the top and bottom surfaces of the dielectric substrate that makes the antenna bear high voltage. The technical parameters of the antenna (such as fidelity, time-domain pattern, etc.) are optimized so that the antenna has good fidelity and wide time-domain pattern.
