This paper focuses on an antenna with a linear taper slot structure. The paper analyzes the impedance and radiation characteristics of this type of antenna and designs a high-gain wideband antenna that operates in the S-band. The simulation results show that the antenna has a comparatively high gain, wide impedance bandwidth and beamwidth in the entire S-band, and can thus be used in the design of antenna arrays.
