Abstract :
In this paper, a pen-shaped antenna, called Vlasov antenna, is introduced. This antenna has a simple structure and can be constructed by creating a slant at the end of a circular waveguide. The main property of this antenna is its suitable radiation by excitation of some modes such as TM01, which are symmetrical. The analysis of the antenna is done qualitatively and then the manner of its design is introduced. A pen-shaped antenna is designed in the X band and then is simulated, fabricated, and its performance is measured.
