Marine active whip receiving antenna structure design and implementation

Whip receiving antenna is used on the short-wave ships for its practical advantages, such as small size and less occupation area, its wideband characteristics, and excellent wind resistance. It can be flexibly mounted on any position of a ship, and has been widely applied in the field of marine short-wave communication. In this paper, receiving antenna structure scheme is presented, and concrete structural of components are introduced in detail. To adapt the operating environment of vessels, an active whip antenna is designed. Through theoretical calculations, software simulation and optimization, the experimental results finally meet the design requirements.
