Abstract :
We have analyzed about the diversity effect when installing two tilted whip-antennas on the body. The measurements´ results of the direction of the arrival and cross-polarization ratio in the field were used for the analysis. By the comparison with the experimental result, the effectiveness of the analysis was confirmed. Also, the parameters on the posture and the length of the antennas have been analyzed by the numerical simulation.
