Yagi-Uda Antennas
Set X
• G increases by
about 2.5 dB if
SR is:
0.15 to 0.3

Yagi-Uda Antenna- Geometry
• Similarly, you can plot the gain as a function of
director spacings or:
• As a function of the number of directors.
Typical Data:
• The first director will add approximately 3 dB of
overall gain (if designed well).
• The second will add about 2 dB.
• The third about 1.5 dB. So larger number than
10 ~ 15 is not always a good idea.

Yagi-Uda Antenna- Design
• The design of a Yagi-Uda antenna is actually
simple. Because Yagi antennas have been
extensively analyzed and experimentally
tested. The design steps basically follow this
outline:
1. Look up a table of design parameters for Yagi
antennas.
2. Build it (or model it numerically), and
optimize it until the performance is
acceptable.

• Example: Consider the table published for
"Yagi Antenna Design“ (available in Balanis):
• DIRECTIVITY = 14.637 dB
