Research abstract
The objective of the Phase 1, SBIR Topic A04-005, "Adaptive Bandwidth High Power RF Antennas," is to develop a broadband (a minimum of 2:1, up to, say, 6:1 or even 10:1 bandwidth) high gain (12 dBi minimum), operating in the HF/VHF and VHF/UHF bands, high power (300 KW at a 50% duty cycle) antenna. The maximum customer preferred size (VHF/UHF) is 1.2 meters diameter and 2 meters long, maximum. For the lower frequency (HF/VHF) of operation the maximum size is 2 meters in diameter and 3 meters long.
