Graph of measured input resistance of a monopole antenna

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Graph of the measured input resistance of a monopole antenna fed at bottom mounted over a large wire screen ground plane as a function of length of the antenna in wavelengths for different values of the length-to-diameter ratio of the element. The horizontal axis of the graph is the electrical length of the antenna, the length divided by the wavelength of the radio frequency input multiplied by 360 degrees. For all practical purposes the vertical axis of the graph is the radiation resistance of the monopole; as the ohmic resistance of the rod was negligible. The cylindrical rod antenna was fed at bottom from under the screen by coaxial cable from a signal generator, and a slotline was used to determine the SWR and thus the input impedance. This was a large experiment in which many different lengths and diameters of rod were used determine the shape of the impedance curve. This parameter needed to be determined experimentally since, particularly near the half-wave resonance, it was difficult to calculate; the numerical algorithms used to analyze antennas have large errors near the resonance.
