  • Abstract
    The Omniguide antenna is a new type of high-gain antenna developed for UHF-TV broadcasting. Waveguide components are employed in the design instead of coaxial line elements to increase the power-handling capacity, Separate picture and sound inputs are provided which are decoupled independent of frequency, thus eliminating the need for a frequency-selective combining Filter. A reflection-absorbing circuit increases the picture input bandwidth.
