Abstract :
This paper discusses the theoretical methods employed by the authors in dimensioning horizontal rhombic receiving antennas. Experimental proof is given of the engineering accuracy of the directivity calculations on which this work is based. There are included brief descriptions of the antenna-to-transmission-line coupling circuits and the resistance terminations for rhombic antennas.
