Abstract :
Submarine communication antenna systems are divided into three systems: VLF, HF, and UHF. The evolution of each system from World War II to the present is described, and some of the problems associated with the antennas in each frequency band are reviewed. HF transmission line systems and their losses are discussed, and various environmental problems are considered. Specific examples of stacked and combined antennas are given.
