Abstract
In this paper, we present the size reduction method of HF whip antenna for ship communication. To reduce the size of the HF whip, the end part of linear whip is modified to helical type. We designed the whip antenna with 60% size of the commercial whip antenna and carried out communication experiments using the commercial and the designed whip antennas. From the experimental results, we found that the proposed whip antenna can replace the commercial whip antenna for ship communication.
