Limits of VSWR for optimal broadband capacitively loaded cylindrical antennas versus their length
Abstract
The paper presents a method for the synthesis of cylindrical antennas with lumped capacitative loadings along their length with respect to their input admittance. The effective reflection coefficient of such antennas was studied as a function of length on the basis of a large number of examples. The results obtained can be used to estimate the necessary minimum size of capacitatively loaded broadband cylindrical antennas, guaranteeing a desired level of antenna matching in a desired frequency range.
