BROADBAND HF ANTENNA DEVELOPMENT.

Abstract

This program deals with the investigation of the log spiral antenna loaded by dielectric and dissipative media with the objective of developing a hardened frequency independent antenna in the HF band. Based on extensive tests with a microwave and 1:10 scale model in conjunction with a heuristic theory of the log spiral antenna in a dissapative medium, design criteria for a hardened antenna in the HF range were developed and estimates of the spiral antenna efficiency in this band could be established.
