  • Abstract
    The radiation properties of a double parasitic loop counterpoise antenna capable of bringing out superior performance from the existing VHF omnirange (VOR) systems are discussed. It is shown that such an antenna when suitably designed will reduce considerably the siting errors inherent in the existing VOR systems.
