Title: Corner reflector antenna design
Post by Tronix on Aug 29^th, 2007, 1:21am

Hey everyone

I desperately need to design a cheap but effective corner rflector antenna with the ff specs:
• Gain at centre frequency, fc: 15 dBi
• Centre frequency, fc: 600 MHz
• Input impedance: 75 Ohms
• Sidelobe level below main lobe(s): >40 dB.

Anyone with anything that can help please help me up. Im desperate

Hi,
Take a look at:
http://www.northcountryradio.com/Articles/crfl.htm
http://www.qsl.net/ve3rgw/corner.html
also I think the book "Antenna Theory: Analysis and Design" by Constantine A. Balanis will be useful, probably will also be useful the book "The ARRL Antenna Book" by the ARRL(not sure about this one, I read it time ago). Usually radio amateur webs contains useful information for the design of cheap antennas.
Hope it helps,
