The various condition of soil under which a target is buried may change the footprint of an antenna. An antenna with a capacity to adapt with different soil condition is therefore needed. This type of antenna is capable of keeping the footprint constant in different soil condition. The footprint of an antenna is related to the antennas dimension. In this paper, Modified dipole array is proposed as an adaptive antenna for GPR. With RF Switch circuit, we choose the element on the antenna that will be fed considering to footprint that will be produced. Resistive loading is used to reduce coupling level between elements in the array. The simulation results show that different active element produce different near field area. The size of near field area is proportional to the dimension of the element. © 2007 IEEE.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Active element,Adaptive antenna,Adaptive antennas,Coupling,Dipole arrays,Footprint,Ground-penetrating radar,International conferences,Modified dipole,Near-field area,Resistive loading,RF switching,Simulation results,Soil conditioning,Ultra wide bands[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Adaptive antenna,Coupling,Footprint,Modified dipole,Resistive loading[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ICUWB.2007.4381050[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
