Calculated Near Fields of Navy HF Whip Antennas

Abstract

The hazards to personnel, ordnance, and fuel caused by shipboard hf radiators are determined. Numerical techniques are used to calculate the peak field intensities produced by 1-kW power input to standard Navy whip antennas in configurations similar to shipboard geometries. Preliminary guidelines are established indicating the size of the hazardous region surrounding the antenna for both ordnance and personnel.
