Directional High Frequency Antenna

Directional High Frequency Antenna: Directional High Frequency Antenna are likely to differ from lower-frequency ones for two reasons. These are the HF transmission/reception requirements and the ability to meet them.…

Antenna Coupling

Antenna Coupling: Antenna Coupling : Low and medium frequency antennas are the ones least likely to be of resonant effective height and are therefore the least likely to have purely…

Effects of Antenna Height

Effects of Antenna Height: At low and medium frequencies, where wavelengths are long, it often becomes im­practicable to use an antenna of resonant length. The vertical antennas used at those…
