ABSTRACT

The loads included in the antenna allow attainment of the concrete electrical characteristics for a selected antenna length. This chapter examines the two variants of antennas: The monopole without loads of a height 6 m and of a diameter 0.016 m and the radiator of a height 12 m and of a diameter 0.06 m with nine capacitive loads, ensuring optimal electrical characteristics in the frequencies ranging from 8 to 22 MHz. In V-antenna with capacitors the propagation constant is real and current is in-phase. The resistor must be located in series with the capacitor, and that leads to a phase lag of current along an antenna wire. The use of resistors in a transmitting antenna is inexpedient. This means that the loads of a V-dipole should not differ from the loads of a linear radiator, which ensure an in-phase current distribution along an antenna.
