A wideband band 2 aerial
Abstract
A four element end-fire array of dipoles were developed with the aid of a computer program to operate as a transmitting or receiving aerial in the frequency range 88 to 100 MHz. Scale model measurements were made to check the calculated performance, and the radiation patterns show good agreement. The theoretical and measured input admittances are also in good agreement except for a slight departure at the higher frequencies, but it is anticipated that closer agreement will be obtained with measurements performed on a full-size aerial.
