Antennas — Travelling Wave Antennas
Information on Travelling Wave Antennas
Because a travelling wave antenna is terminated by a resistance
matching its characteristic impedance, no standing wave is present. The
lack of a standing wave means that the length of
a travelling wave antenna need bear no relationship to the
wavelength of the signal being transmitted or received.
Travelling wave antennas are commonly used in the HF band.
Travelling wave antennas that are commonly used include the inverted V antenna,
the delta antenna and the rhombic antenna.
