Study of Miniaturization of 2 Stages 2-Arm Sinuous Antenna

Abstract
This paper proposed a 2 stages 2-arm sinuous antenna that operates in frequency range 0.8-6GHz. The proposed antenna's total radius is 60mm, in which 1st stage's radius is 50mm which is designed as self-complementary structure(cell's angle width $90^{\circ}$) with 8 cell, and 2nd stage is composed of non-self-complementary structure with 0.5 cell of cell's angle width $720^{\circ}$ in the radius width 10mm. Measurement's result shows that -10dB return loss starts at 0.807GHz, but 1 stage 2-arm sinuous antenna that use the same radius starts at about 0.878GHz, so proposed the possibility of the miniaturization of the sinuous antenna.
