ABSTRACT:
A whip antenna with a substantially constant impedance over a broad band of radio frequencies includes a mounting section, a high-power-dissipation low-resistance assembly, a first whip section, a second whip section, and a high-impedance quarter-wavelength transformer section concentrically formed around the first whip section and extending from the resistance assembly to the junction of the first and second whip sections. The low-resistance termination is attached close to the base of the antenna and is transformed to a high resistance at the junction of the first and second whip sections at the frequency where the matching section length equals one quarter-wavelength. The resistive power loss only occurs over a limited band centered at the design frequency of the matching section. Instability caused by emplacement of a high-mass resistive termination towards the top of the complete antenna is thus avoided.
