Circularly Disposed Antenna Arrays

Abstract

A radio intercept system combing properties of high sensitivity, precision direction finding and good intercept probability on signals of short duration is the subject of this preliminary report. A survey has been made of the properties of a circularly disposed antenna array known as the Wullenweber used by the German Navy during World War II.
