Collinear Dipole Antenna Calculator - Calculate Antenna Dimensions
Description
This page offers an online antenna designer to calculate the dimensions for a collinear dipole antenna at a specified frequency. The collinear dipole antenna is constructed with multiple 1/2 wavelength sections separated by a 1/4 wave phasing stub in the form of a coil. It requires a ground-plane to operate and can be used for both receiving and transmitting purposes. The antenna can be made from common copper wire, with thicker wire providing a wider bandwidth. The calculations are based on radio waves traveling at the speed of light. Ideal for ham radio operators looking to build their own antenna for improved reception and transmission.
