Study and Implementation of the Log-Periodic Dipole Array Antenna for Electromagnetic Compatibility

Abstract.
The problem of Electromagnetic compatibility is a popular topic. It is divided into two categories, one is conducted electromagnetic interference, another is radiated interference. We can use LISN to measure the signal of conducted electromagnetic interference , and use antenna to measure the signal of radiated interference. This paper will focus on the antenna.
The frequency range of radiated Electromagnetic Interference measurement is so wide that using the halfwave dipole antenna will be very time-consuming, Therefore broadband antennas are often used in lieu of the halfwave dipole antennas. The design procedure of the log-periodic dipole array antenna is introduced in this article. Simulation data of such antenna using the NEC2 software, including the input impedance and the antenna pattern are also provided. Furthermore, based on the parameters obtained from the simulation, a log-periodic dipole array antenna can be fabricated. In doing so, the simulation results should be modified to take into considerations of the specification of the material used, such as diameters of the materials, and lengths of the transmission lines. Once the construction of the log-periodic dipole array antenna is completes, it can be compared with the simulation results, and the difference between them should be investigated to find out the optimal design parameters. Finally, the antenna factor can be calculated to compare it with the measurement data.
