This paper presents the novel design of an ultra" #ideband (UWB) antipodal Vivaldi antenna using periodic elliptical slots (PES"AVA) for microwave and radar imaging
applications. Further, the high permittivity (ɛr=10.2) dielectric lens which triangular in shaped is introduced in"!ront (PES" AVA"3) to improve the linear polarization performance, gain as well as directivity of the antenna. The antenna design and its optimization process offer good outcomes by using low"+ost substrate material, fiberglass reinforced grade 4 (FR4) with a
thickness of 1.57mm and permittivity of (ɛr=4.3) respectively. The (PES"AVA) antenna design produces the average effects of gain (5"9dB) and directivity of (5"10dBi). However, the addition of the triangular"shaped dielectric lens placed in front of an antenna is able to improve the peak gain up to 10.6dB with 11.9dBi in directivity. The radiation patterns of the proposed antenna have been also improved by using the dielectric lens where the magnitude of the main lobe is larger than (PES"AVA).
