99.	Performance of a Crossed Exponentially Tapered Slot Antenna for UWB Systems Costa, J.R.; Medeiros, C.R.; Fernandes, C.A. Antennas and Propagation, IEEE Transactions on Volume 57, Issue 5, Date: May 2009, Pages: 1345-1352 Digital Object Identifier 10.1109/TAP.2009.2016727 Summary: A compact printed antenna is described that exhibits adequate transient performance for ultrawideband (UWB) applications and it is further adequate for polarization diversity schemes. The antenna is based on an original combination of two crossed expo...
