Abstract:

If improperly designed, the loops, preamplifiers, mixers, and transmission lines tend to deteriorate the directivity of VLF superdirective arrays in which they are used. This report describes the characteristics required of these components when used experimentally in super directive arrays. Reception patterns of these arrays and illustrations of the respective capabilities of the components are given.
