ABSTRACT
This report describes development of a tri-axial mutually orthogonal broadband twin-loop receiving antenna for the HF band. The three twin-loops have been arranged so that they exhibit the same distributed parameters between themselves and ground. The upper frequency limit of the antenna is discussed and a method for extending the low frequency cut-off is presented. The antenna noise factor is calculated from measured data.

Thanks for posting the link Ray. There is some very interesting reading and design work within. Thanks.
The Antenna system as described in the "Gissele" paper talks about the design of a particular type of antenna for a particular type of receiving situation,such as high portability,easy deployment,low visual impact amongst other attributes. It could never be compared to a high gain permanent antenna installation. The Paper contains a lot of very interesting information on the subjects of antennas, co ax cable, low noise power supplies,common mode noise problems in transmission lines, plus a host of other information. It must represent many hours of research and hard work. Members could perhaps read the paper through many times so as to understand not only the design philosophy of the individual elements but also the overall design philosophy. Happy reading.
