In this paper, a novel monolayer multi-octave bandwidth log-periodic microstrip antenna (LPMA) is presented. This antenna consists of a 50› microstrip feed-line and fourteen rectangular patch elements. Twelve rectangular patch elements are fed by edge-coupling from the microstrip feed-line and two other patch elements are directly connected with the microstrip feed-line. A mixed microstrip line feed is applied to expand the bandwidth. Our measured results closely agree with the simulated results. These results show that the proposed antenna lends itself well to operation in the impedance bandwidth from 2GHz to 8GHz with a voltage standing-wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2.
