Abstract
A flexible VHF/UHF Vivaldi antenna is proposed. The antenna is realized on 600 × 600 mm2 silicone substrate with a thickness of 1.5 mm. The silicone substrate is used due to its low cost, its robustness and its flexibility. The antenna has a 6-dB impedance bandwidth from 150 MHz to 10 GHz. The measurements have shown that the bending slightly affect the impedance and the radiation patterns of the antenna. This last one is used for military applications to receive and find the source of VHF/UHF micro-wave emissions.
