BROADBAND ANTENNA WITH FOLDED DIPOLES

FIELD: communication facilities; antennas for receiving television signals and the like. SUBSTANCE: folded dipoles of antenna are selfcomplementary devices with antiresonance jumpers connected to two-wire collecting line. One half of folded dipole is electrically connected to first pipe of two-wire collecting line and other half of this dipole is capacitively coupled with other pipe of two-wire collecting line through ferrite bushing. One half of adjacent dipole is electrically connected to other pipe of two-wire collecting line and its other half is capacitively coupled with first pipe of two-wire collecting line through ferrite bushing. EFFECT: enhanced operating frequency band and gain; improved matching with feeder; reduced size. 1 cl, 3 dwg
