Abstract :
The open hollow pipe of rectangular cross section is discussed from both practical and theoretical standpoints as a radiator and absorber of ultra-short electromagnetic waves. A theory of operation is derived and it is verified by a series of measured radiation patterns taken at wavelengths of 50 to 100 centimeters.
