Study of HF criteria for a composite nose-cap antenna.

A composite nose radome, transparent at microwave frequencies, is analyzed for use as an isolated cap High Frequency antenna for the CL-44 aircraft. The theories of asymmetrically-driven antennas are first outlined, and the antenna under investigation is shown to resemble most appropriately an end-f...
