Transistor-fed thick folded dipole with large bandwidth at reception
Abstract
A small active folded dipole used for reception between 300 and 1400 MHz is presented. The output impedance is matched by a transistor and the folded-dipole radiation impedance is determined to allow good sensitivity to the reception of weak signals.
