Book Description
Two previous books titled “Super-Dipole” and “Super Max-Dipole” Antennas were written by this author, thereby introducing a completely new “Unified Broad-Banding Method”. This method primarily consists of the use of a 1/2 wavelength Dipole, which is fed with a 1/4 (or shorter) wavelength resonant line. The amount of coupling between these two components is greatly reduced and controlled to produce a wide SWR bandwidth. This Broad-Banding method is referred to as “Critically-Coupled Broad-Banding”. This new book, titled “Super Multi-Band Antennas” is a continuation of the previous book, where Broad-Banding is taken to an extreme and Dual-Band antennas can be configured either on an adjacent band or those that might have a much greater 2 to 1 frequency separation. Early chapters of this book reintroduce the “Unified Broad-Banding Method”, presenting Horizontal antennas with superb SWR bandwidths and then showing Dual-Band versions with many different band combinations from 60m on up to 450 MHz, using either wire or tubing. Single band Folded-Dipole configurations using tubing or Ladder-line/Window-line are shown to produce extremely low SWR bandwidths. Inverted “V” Dual-Band antennas, with many band combinations allow for easier antenna mounting. Both Vertical and Horizontal Single-fed, Dual-Band Quad antennas have a limited bandwidth but when each individual 1/2wL section is fed, these antennas are classified as a “Prismatic Polygon” and thereby achieve far greater bandwidth, achieving it in a totally different manner from the “Critically-Coupled” method. There are many versions of Quad, Triangular, Pentagons and Hexagon Polygon antennas and all of their Multi-radiators must be fed. Some can cover from 30 to 10m, while others can cover from 144 to 450 MHz, allowing all services within the bandwidth, including the Amateur Radio services to use these antennas. This book presents large numbers and a variety of antennas and it also provides a path of the evolution from one type of antenna to another, providing detailed performance. Many thanks again to Eugene Belton and Dale Parfitt for their dedicated hard work, which without; these books would not have been possible. Surely you will be pleased with the extent of information provided, which covers important details.

Book Description
“Super-Dipole Antennas” is a book that introduces a completely new “Unified Broad-Banding Method”. This method primarily consists of the use of a 1/2 wavelength Dipole, which is fed with a 1/4 (or shorter) wavelength resonant line. The amount of coupling between these two components is greatly reduced and controlled to produce a wide SWR bandwidth. This Broad-Banding Method is referred to as “Critically-Coupled Broad-Banding”. There are many different configurations that are possible and these are presented in a logical sequence, showing how each has evolved from the previous one. Some use “Low Impedance Coupling”, while others utilize “High Impedance” and both can achieve low SWR bandwidths. Most all of the configurations are adaptable to the various radio Amateur bands, from 160m to above the 6m band. Some utilize wire radiators, while others at the higher frequencies, utilize aluminum tubing. Large numbers of antennas are presented covering most all of the wider Amateur radio bands where Broad-Banding is most desirable. The completely new and unique configurations introduced will completely change the perception of how antennas are Matched and Broad-Banded. Many of the configurations are very simple and easy to understand. Most have been reduced in complexity, cost of materials, and can readily be assembled and these are referred to as “Super-Dipole Antennas”. Other methods of Broad-Banding are also presented, which have unique advantages, while some others have Multi-Band capabilities. Almost all of the configurations presented include charts showing how the Far-field gains and coaxial losses vary across each of the bandwidths, giving a good perception of the efficiency on each band. Each antenna configuration has been carefully computer-modeled, making certain that all of the critical requirements are taken into account and checking the consistency of results, thus giving an assurance of good modeling accuracy. This book has been written to purposely keep it simple, point out the pertinent details, make comparisons between different antennas, in the simple straightforward manner, while avoiding any complicated formulas. It is meant to be a tutorial on Broad-Banding, along with the catalog of practical antenna configurations in order to encourage further interest, imagination and experimentation.

Book Description
Joe Carr has provided radio amateurs and short-wave listeners with the definitive design guide for sending and receiving radio signals with Antenna Toolkit 2nd edition.Together with the powerful suite of CD software, the reader will have a complete solution for constructing or using an antenna - bar the actual hardware! The software provides a simple Windows-based aid to carrying out the design calculations at the heart of successful antenna design. All the user needs to do is select the antenna type and set the frequency - a much more fun and less error prone method than using a conventional calculator to solve formulae. The new edition has been revised to include further cases of propagation, additional antennas and also two new chapters - Small Loop Antennas (a topic of considerable interest, which has been the subject of much recent debate in the amateur radio press); and Yagi Beam Antennas (widely used at HF and VHF). The CD software has also been updated.Joe Carr's expertise in the area of antenna design is legendary. Antenna designers, whether hobbyist or technician, can be assured they need look no further than Antenna Toolkit for the complete guide to understanding the practicalities of using and designing antennas today.A complete solution for antenna design in one package.Includes free CD-ROM with state of the art software for all design calculations.The definitive guide to antenna design for radio amateurs and short-wave listeners.

Wide-Range Antennas
Author: Boris Levin
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351043234
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
Expanding the range of antenna frequency is the main objective of this book. Solutions proposed are based on the development of new theoretical methods for analyzing and synthesizing antennas. The book shows that concentrated capacitive loads connected along linear and V-antennas provide a high level of matching with a cable over a wide frequency range and improves directional characteristics of antennas, i.e. increases the communication distance. New theoretical methods are proposed for analysis and synthesis of antennas under consideration: 1) method of calculating directional characteristics of radiators with a given current distribution, and 2) method of electrostatic analogy for calculating mutual and total fields of complex multi-element radiating structures. These methods allow us to obtain optimal directional characteristics for director-type antennas (arrays of Yagi-Uda) and log-periodic antennas with concentrated capacitances and show that use of capacitors makes it possible to extend the frequency range of the director antennas and to decrease dimensions of the log-periodic antennas Multi-element (flat and three-dimensional) self-complementary antennas with different variants of connecting generator poles and cable wires to antenna elements are proposed, which improves the matching with a cable. Characteristics of flat structures are compared with characteristics of volume structures: conical, parabolic, and located on a pyramid edges. The book describes new versions of transparent antennas, antennas for cellular communication, multi-tier and multi-radiator antennas, and much more.
