Transposed Excitation
of dipole array
resulted from practical modifications of
Self-complementary antenna.
The antenna shown below is one of the so-called gLog-Periodic Dipole Arrayh or LPDA. However, this is not in the Log-Periodic shape, but it is actually
Modified Self-Complementary Dipole Array (MSCDA) with transposed excitation.
Transposed excitation
for Equally Spaced Modified Self-Complementary Dipole Array, or MSCDA, to obtain unidirectional radiation.

Typical SCA shapes and folding. Modification process of SCA.
(1).Modified Self-Complementary Dipole Array (MSCDA) is
derived from Self-Complementary Antenna (SCA) aftersome steps of practical modifications, and it becomes

(2). MSCDA does not have broadband property
unless it has transposed excitation.
This fact is distinct evidence that the Log-Periodic shape
does not provide Dipole Array with broadband property.
