 Abstract

The goal of this thesis was to develop design concepts of the UWB antenna with improved characteristics for impulse radio applications. To reach this goal a number of theoretical and experimental investigations were carried out. The major result of the thesis is a number of novel concepts for UWB antennas including: - The shielded elliptically-shaped dipole; - The active UWB antenna with an integrated pulse generator on chip; - The differential feeding of balanced UWB antennas via a shielded loop; - -Reduced size elliptically-shaped dipoles; - The study of the environmental impact on transmission of ultra-short pulses via a pair of UWB antennas. Each of these concepts include a number of results, which we overview below and discuss their novelty and importance.
