  • Abstract
    The results are presented of an experimental investigation of the effect of the human body on small-sized radio communication systems equipped with whip antennas. For a frequency range of approximately 30 to 150 MHz, the qualitative relations are defined between, on the one band, the space configuration of an antenna system and the operator´s body, and, on the other hand, electrical parameters such as impedance, radiation pattern, and especially gain.
