Extract

The range of frequency for which aerial systems for aircraft are required is immense: the highest used frequency is over one hundred thousand times the lowest. Very differing techniques are required throughout this range and this lecture will be chiefly concerned with the principles on which these techniques are based, rather than on individual aerial systems.

One method of classification of aerials is by their operating frequency or wavelength range.
