Abstract :
In this paper, the use of an inclined rhombic antenna as a means for reducing the effect offading is discussed. Equations are given for determining the angle at which a rhombic antenna should be inclined to obtain a desired response pattern at various elevation angles in the vertical plane containing the major axis.
