ABSTRACT:
A monopole radiating blade antenna comprising a driving, high impedance stub mounted to the face of the blade that functions as part of the radiator as well as part of a shunt path between the blade and the base plate. The shunt path is completed by an air coil inductor connected between the center conductor of the stub and the base plate. One embodiment provides the input connector wire and stub in vertical alignment along the center vertical axis of the blade. Another embodiment arranges the stub to be off-set from the input wire. Some advantages over conventional blade antennas include increased gain at low angles of elevation above the horizon, good impedance match over a wide range of frequencies without using conventional 1/4 wave length stub matching that can introduce dielectric losses, low resistance to ground to bleed off static electricity and lightning, non-loading of the high impedance path at design frequencies, and good accommodation of 5/8 wavelength radiator blade dimensioning.
