A New Electromagnetic Field Probe by Using Printed Dipole Antenna

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents a novel Electromagnetic field (E-Field) probe structure employing a printed dipole antenna to get isotropic pattern. The printed dipole is constituted by a variety of orthogonal dipole antenna array, and it is used in the design to reduce the complexity and cost. In this paper, we stimulate the printed dipole antenna and detector diodes by software, and the results confirm the validity of the printed dipole antenna. Moreover, the directivity of antenna array depends on the location of dipole antenna. By changing some design of the antenna, the probe achieves flat frequency response in 0.1GHz-10GHz.
