Abstrak
In this paper, a high-power ultrawideband antenna is presented for the purpose of remotely neutralizing improvised explosive devices. The developed antenna has a bandwidth between 230 MHz and 2 GHz, as well as a maximum realized gain of 18.7 dB. The antenna structure incorporates a solid dielectric (HDPE 1000) so that it can be powered, without risk of a possible breakdown voltage, by a Marx generator which delivers a bipolar pulse with a peak amplitude of +/−250 kV, a rise time of 170 ps, and a duration of 1 ns. The radiated electric field obtained in simulation is, respectively, 1 MV/m peak and 126 kV/m peak at a distance of 1 m and 10 m.
