  • Abstract
    Empirical design relations are presented for a uniform diameter helical antenna operating in the axial mode. The antenna peak gain, HPBW, and bandwidth are expressed as a function of the helix design parameters (diameter, pitch angle, and number of turns). Computed values are compared with experimental data for various helix configurations.
