Design and construction of a loop-quad antenna for use at c-band / Maslina Al-Ahmady Mohd Amin

In this thesis, the design and construction of a loop-quad antenna is described. The design is aided by a software written in Turbo Pascal. The radiation pattern was simulated using MAPLE V Mathematical Package. A simple simulation was attempted based on constant current approximation in the loop. B...
