Abstract :
A new UHF-VHF antenna has been designed that is electrically small and exhibits multioctave bandwidth properties. This electrical hybrid design features ruggedness, light weight, compactness, and low profile. Experimental results indicate that the Slotted Cone Antenna radiates primarily vertical polarization and, like the monopole, exhibits an omnidirectional radiation characteristic.
