Abstract
In this study, a systematic and simplified design procedure for quasi-Yagi antennas is presented. The design is based on the simple field and impedance matching among antenna components. This new antenna design is possible due to the newly developed ultra-wideband balun. Two types of wideband quasi-Yagi antennas are successfully designed and implemented in Ku- and Ka-band with frequency bandwidths of 53.2% and 29.1%, respectively.
