A Receiving Loop Antenna for Super-Broadband Pulsed Signals

摘要

A simple method is suggested for parameter estimation of loop antennas intended for reception of superbroadband pulsed signals. The effect of size and load resistance of the antenna upon its broadbandness and sensitivity are analyzed. The current amplitude at the antenna output has been analyzed in dependence on the geometrical size of the structure. The directional pattern of a multielement loop antenna and distortions of the received signal waveform are analyzed in dependence on the number of elements and dimensions of the structure.
