Design of a small size High Frequency (HF) helical antenna / Samihah Abdullah, Mohd Aswad Amat Mushim and Juliana Md Sharif

The main objective of this project is to focus on the designing of helical antenna in the High Frequency (HF) range from 3 MHz to 30 MHz. Several parameters dimension and helical’s profiles were studied in order to obtained a suitable resonance frequency. Among the helical antenna parameters that be...
