Abstract
The increasing advanced devices in the recent communication systems, such as 5G, mm wave, and ultrawideband communication systems, led to the antenna design. This antenna design accomplishes better radiation efficiency, stable radiation pattern and higher data rates. In the recent years, a lot of Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna (AVA) structures have been designed to support the proliferation of advanced devices. Different methods are developed and analysed in the more compact AVA structure by using the chosen substrate, introducing flare shapes, and fern-shaped fractals, introducing the multiple slots and different feeding connectors. In this paper, various enhancement and optimization of the performance enhancement techniques of AVA structures have been discussed. The recently proposed antenna structures are explained in detail by incorporating the merits and demerits. Moreover, the illustrations from the literature demonstrate the future directions and improvements by applying the performance enhancement techniques.
