INTRODUCTION
 dipoleantenna, with the ends
folded back, and connected to
each other

 width‘d’ of the folded dipole is


much smaller than the length ‘L’

Dipoles
 varying the effective
diameter of the two
conductors:
top and bottom,
different ratios can be
obtained.

FOLDED DIPOLE ANTENNA

The impedance step up ratio provided


by the folded dipole is:
Impedance Where,
 d1 = conductor diameter for
2
𝑙𝑜𝑔 2𝑆
𝑑1 the feed arm of the dipole.
𝑟= 1+
 d2 = conductor diameter for
2𝑆
𝑙𝑜𝑔 𝑑2 the non-feed arm of the dipole
 s =distance between
the conductors
 r is the step up ratio

[Link]-conductor folded
dipoles
 folded dipole antenna often
implies the use of one
extra conductor

 concept can be
extended further by
adding additional
'folds' or conductors

Impedance of Multi-conductor
folded dipoles
 special case where all the conductors have
the same diameter

then the impedance is increased by a


factor of three squared, i.e. 9.

DESIGN
 The Length of folded
dipole
* La = 145 / freq (
MHz )
 Length of coil

* for 75 ohm cable :


Lb
= La x 0.8
*for 50 ohm cable: Lb =
La x 0.66

PRESENTATION ON:
FOLDED DIPOLE ANTENNA

Radiation Pattern

 reflects the 'sensitivity' of the antenna in


different directions

 knowledge of this allows the antenna to be


orientated in the optimum direction to ensure
the required performance
