In this paper, double slot podal and antipodal ultra-wideband (UWB) microstrip antennas for a fluid property measurement system are proposed. Among different feeding techniques, out of phase uni-planner power divider approach is used. The performance verification of the proposed antenna is explained, along with a performance comparison of the antenna bandwidth, feeding, and the realized gain. The suggested podal antenna has an impedance bandwidth from 2.4 to 15.4 GHz, with a maximum gain of 11.3 dBi in the 12 GHz region while the antipodal antenna has a 2.8 GHz to 16 GHz impedance bandwidth, with a maximum gain of 10.4 dBi in the 10 GHz region. Within the intended band, the radiation pattern had an excellent directivity characteristic. The implementation of the proposed antenna is calibrated by measuring the propagated signals response via various liquid specimens using UWB radar, which might be applied for fluid sensing and prediction purposes. The proposed antenna was connected to an NVA-R661 module of Xethru Inc. for measuring the sample delay and peak-to-peak amplitude of the received signals passing through specimens. The measured parameters at a different radar frequency range of transmission are applied by drawing the fluid viscous analogy based on Poiseuille's law hypothesis, showing clear differentiation between the test specimens.
