Abstract :
A novel collinear antenna constructed of coaxial cable with inner- and outer-conductors interchanged at half-wavelength intervals is described. A 26-element antenna of this type has been constructed and evaluated. Design criteria presented allow extension to the use of coaxial cable of different types in a variety of radio/radar arrays.
