Abstract
The characteristics of the batwing radiator, which is the heart of the superturnstile antenna system for VHF-TV broadcasting, are wide bandwidth. We investigate the modified batwing antenna for UHF used as the digital terrestrial broadcasting. In this paper, the characteristics of the 2-element modified batwing antenna with the reflector are calculated. This antenna is connected with each elements by a parallel feed line and fed at the center of this line. The higher gain and the broad bandwidth compared with the 2-element original twin loop antenna are obtained.
