(Cl. 343-767) v The object of the invention is to provide an antenna obtained by the excitation of a conductor tube by means of jslots. The slots are formed in the wall of the cylinder and may have any shape, depending on the characteristics of impedance and directivity of the desired radiation.
Y A further object of the invention is to provide a stacked array of such cylinders so as to obtain a directional antenna.
' Further features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the ensuing description with reference to vthe accompanying drawings to which the invention is in no way limited.
' In the drawings:
' .Fig. 1 shows a known dipole antenna with its feeder;
Figs. 2 and 3 show shapes of slots used for the excitation of a metallic cylinder;
'f1-lig. 4 shows a system of rectangular co-ordinates which permit the radiation pattern around the dipole antenna to be defined;

Figs. 8 and 9 are Views on an enlarged scale of two embodiments of the feeder, and,
Fig. 10 shows diagrammatically the characteristics of a colinear array obtained with antennas of the aforementioned type.
1 It is known that a cylindrical dipole, half-wave antenna is generally fed symmetrically, as shown in Fig. 1, the two parts A and B being insulated and separately connected to the two conductors of a feeder f.
According to the invention, the insulation between the two cylinders A and B is eliminated by means of the excitation of slots formed in the wall of the cyinder which has a conductive surface.
The shape of these slots could be, for example, that of the slot S1 shown in Fig. V2, namely composed of twO` triangular apertures interconnected at their apices, or that of the H-shaped slot S2 shown in Fig. 3.
1 The arrangement and the number of these slots depend on the desired radiation pattern. For example, to obtain a directional radiation pattern in the planerxy, a single slot S3 is formed in the wall of a cylinder of revolution ('Figs. 4 and 5). On the other hand, to obtain a substantially circular pattern in the same plane, a further slot S1 is formed in the cylinder in such position that the slots S1 and S3 are symmetrically disposed relative to a diametral plane of the cylinder (Fig. 6).
In this last-mentioned embodiment, the diameter of the cylinder must be much less than the wavelength a, for example about 0.15 A, )i being a wavelength within the wave band of the antenna.
In the planes containing the axis of the cylinder, the radiation pattern is substantially that of a dipole halfwave antenna so long as the length of the cylinder remains about a half-wavelength.
The matching of such an -antenna to the characteristic impedance of the feeder depends on the shape of the slots and on the connecting line at their excitation points.
A further object of the invention is to provide an excitation system comprising two H-shaped slots S5 and S6 formed symmetrically in the wall of a cylinder of revolution (Figs. 7A and 7B).
The edges AA and BB are interconnected in the embodiment shown in Figs. 7A and 7B by two plates'l, 2 which form a high characteristic impedance line (Fig. 8).
The outer conductor tube of the coaxial feeder is connected to the plate 2 and the inner conductor is fixed to the plate 1. The introduction at point C of a series reactance, for example a section of a series line (Fig. 9), permits the impedance `Icurve to be compensated for the extreme frequencies of the band. Thus an antenna constructed in accordance with Figs. 7A and 7B, having a length L and an outside diameter of the cylinder equal to 0.24 L, permits covering wavelengths ranging between 1.5 L and 3 L for a voltage standing wave ratio of about 2 in a coaxial feeder having a characteristic impedance of 100 ohms.
The interest of the invention resides in the following possibilities: on one hand, the simple construction of a wide band antenna which takes up only a small amount of space and, on the other hand, the practical construc. tion of a stacked array of such antennas, this stackedv array permitting either superimposing a plurality of radiators within a small space, having a low interaction, or constructing a highly directional antenna.
It is to be understood that the invention is intended to cover for example the embodiment described hereinafter.
This embodiment is shown in Fig. 10 and comprises four identical cylinders which are excited in accordance with the method of excitation described hereinbefore and shown in Figs. 7A, 7B, 8 and 9.
Said cylinders are fixed inside a tube V of insulating material, which ensures that the assemblage is fluid-tight and strongly constructed. A beacon lamp surmounts the tube.
Each antenna A1, A2, A3, A4 may be fed by a separate feeder extending through the interior of the antennas.
Each antenna may, furthermore, be matched to a separate coaxial feeder having an impedance Z (for example Z=100 ohms), these feeders being connected in pairs to coaxial feeders C1, C2 having an impedance Z/2 (50 ohms). The feeders C1, C2 are connected at R and, through the medium of a matching transformer, to a single feeder having an impedance Zo. The lengths of the feeders are chosen in accordance with the desired radiation pattern.
Zo may be, for example, between 50 and 75 ohms.
Said antenna, which is constructed to cover a frequency band ranging from 225 to 400 mc./s., has high directivity in the plane containing the axis of the antenna and provides a substantially circular radiation pattern in the plane normal to said axis.
It will be obvious that it is possible to lconstruct'a directional antenna for shorter or longer wavelengths by multiplying the given dimensions by the ratio between of .said slots being such that each of said slots is individually at resonance at a frequency within the range of the operating frequencies; the length L of said cylinder being equal to M2, )t being a wavelength within the range of the operating wavelengths, and the diameter of said cylinder being no more than 0.3 L; and means for feeding said antenna to produce polarization parallel with the axis of said cylinder.
