The book covers antenna siting and placement, computational antenna modelling on structures, measurement on sub-scale models of the airframe, full-scale ground measurements and in-flight measurements. The author addresses the different stages in the process of developing an entire antenna layout, as well as covering individual retrofits on existing platforms. She explains the physics of antenna placement qualitatively, thus obviating the requirem 410 0$aAerospace series (Chichester, England) 606 $aAirplanes$xRadio antennas$xInstallation 606 $aAntenna radiation patterns 615 0$aAirplanes$xRadio antennas$xInstallation. 615 0$aAntenna radiation patterns. 676 $a621.382/4 676 $a629.135 700 $aMacnamara$b Thereza$0754878 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910140615903321 996 $aIntroduction to antenna placement and installation$91959750 997 $aUNINA
