We propose a new ultra-wideband antipodal Vivaldi antenna design based on the Klopfenstein curve, incorporating exponential slots, horns, and apertures to improve the antenna’s return loss and increase its gain in high-frequency bands. The antenna achieves high gain and wide bandwidth characteristics, with measured −10 dB bandwidth ranging from 2 GHz to 20 GHz, maximum gain of 14 dBi, and gain exceeding 10 dBi from 3.5 GHz to 14 GHz.
