Abstract :
An approximate theoretical study of a sandwich-wire antenna is presented. The two outer conductors are in parallel and the center conductor is bent into triangular form with a period equal to the wavelength. The attenuation constant is obtained. The radiation pattern of an array consisting of a number of sandwich-wire antennas is evaluated. The theoretical results are compared with the existing experimental data.
