Quality Factor and Statistics for Radiation Patterns of Shipboard HF Antennas
Abstract
The characteristics of various statistical entities of radiation patterns are reviewed in an effort to: improve the technical representation and definition of a figure-of-merit 'quality factor' for antenna patterns; improve understanding of the distribution of pattern gain values; determine requirements for antenna patterns; improve understanding of the distribution of pattern gain values; determine requirements for antenna pattern statistical data for various applications; develop an improved 'antenna pattern statistical summary' that employs the fewest numbers to provide a statistical characterization of radiation patterns.
