Building antennas is a time-honored ham radio tradition. Shortwave antennas tend to be bulky but at VHF frequencies the antenna sizes are pretty manageable. [Fjkaan’s] 2 meter quadrifilar helicoidal ...
Amateur radio operators like to say that working a contact in space can be done with a simple handheld transceiver and a homemade antenna. And while that’s true, it’s true only for low Earth orbit ...
Receiving a signal from a geosynchronous satellite 22,300 miles out or a GPS satellite over 10,000 miles away is a challenge. Big gain antennas usually are necessary. But that’s just the opposite of ...
Why there’s a need for a lightweight, easily reconfigured antenna. The clever and simple design devised by the researchers. Some aspects of performance evaluations in various configurations. Antennas ...
No audio available for this content. Sea level changes are monitored using a VeraChoke antenna at a GNSS observing station in Canada. (Image: Natural Resources Canada) All antennas for global ...
First, the payload requirements and problems faced by traditional multi-beam antenna are described. The user beam of the VHTS payload system mainly uses Ka-band multi-beam antenna for a large range of ...
In Part 1, we introduced the phased array concept, beam steering and array gain. In Part 2, we presented the concept of grating lobes and beam squint. In this section, we begin with a discussion of ...
