Abstract :
A cross LPD array antenna on a conducting cone has been designed and tested. The frequency-independent characteristics of the LPD array antenna were maintained by coinciding the virtual tip of the LPD array and that of the conducting cone. It was found that the radiation pattern and the input impedance of this antenna are not significantly deteriorated by the presence of the conducting cone.
