Abstract
An biconical antenna assembly including a pair of conductors each having a plurality of radiating conductors. One of the conductors defines a cone shape and radiating conductors extending to define a generally conical form. The other conductor defines a cylindrical shape and radiating conductors extend to define another generally conical form. The conical forms are defined by a pair of sheet conductors and radiating conductors generally divergent about a center point or axis. A feed point is defined generally at the center point. Multiple RF chokes can be provided on the radiating conductors to optimize performance of the antenna over a predetermined frequency range.
