Abstract:
Experimental results obtained for a single helical radiator, as well as for the system of helical elements similar to the directional antenna Yagi–Uda are presented. These results suggest that for a helical antenna with optimized parameters, it is possible to obtain an effective lateral radiation and design of the directional antenna based on such helical elements. However, it is necessary to optimize the system parameters of helical elements forming an antenna for higher directivity and polarization of the radiation required.
