Abstract :
A new VOR antenna system is proposed. It uses one or more large parasitic loops in conjunction with an Alford loop above a circular ground plane. Such a system produces excellent far field gradient characteristics below the horizon. This should improve considerably the errors in the present VOR bearing indications.
