An ultra-wideband high-gain vivaldi antenna loaded with wave-absorbing material
By loading absorbing materials into the Vivaldi antenna and optimizing the radiating arm structure, the problems of low low-frequency gain and insufficient impedance bandwidth were solved, achieving high gain and broadband matching, thus improving the detection effect of ground penetrating radar.

AI Technical Summary
Existing Vivaldi antennas in air-coupled ground-penetrating radar suffer from low-frequency gain, insufficient impedance bandwidth, and low front-to-back ratio, which affect detection performance.
By loading absorbing material into the Vivaldi antenna, designing a circular matching slot, a metal director, a reflector, and an absorbing module, and optimizing the radiating arm structure, impedance broadband matching, suppression of time-domain ringing response, and energy focusing are achieved.
It improved the low-frequency gain and impedance bandwidth of the antenna, suppressed the time-domain ringing response, enhanced the longitudinal resolution and defect location accuracy, and strengthened the detection capability.
