  • Abstract
    The use of wireless communication systems is becoming more prevalent in the military. In addition, these systems are located in environments where the antennas experience an ever changing load environment. This is especially true for sea-based antennas which float on top of or are mounted near the surface of the water. This paper presents an algorithm which efficiently controls a double-stub impedance matching network (IMN) for matching an antenna with an unknown load.
