Abstract :
Experimental and theoretical values of admittance are presented for a monopole antenna made in the form of a row of identical conducting, mutually insulated cylinders. The influence of the number of cylinders making monopoles of equal length and with equal total gapwidths between the cylinders is analysed. It was found that such antennas exhibit broadband properties similar to those of antennas with tapered capacitive loading.
