Curtain Arrays of Horizontal Dipoles
P. J. Joglekar · IEEE Transactions on Electromagnetic Compatibility · 1973
The directivity patterns of a curtain array used in HF communication systems were calculated in the past on the assumption of sinusoidal current distribution. Since this assumption is not justified by the modern theory, there is a need to revise these calculations. Some experimental results which were not understood earlier also provide support for this view.
