Abstract

A microwave antenna has an elongated tubular radome made of a rigid nonconductive material, and an elongated unitary core made of a rigid dielectric material and telescoped within the radome in supporting engagement with the inner surface of said radome. A pair of conductive antenna elements are affixed to the surface of the core and extend along the length thereof. A microwave transmission line is connected to the antenna elements for transmitting electromagnetic energy to and from the elements.
