Abstract:The electrical and radiation properties of the Radiax have been measured. The main results are: i) the surface wave exists, ii) the radial radiation follows 1/r2 relation for frequency below 190 MHz and 1/r relation for frequency near 400 MHz, iii) the transverse radiation pattern is nearly omnidirectional, iv) the coherent band-width is on the order of 3 MHz and the operating frequency range is several hundred megahertz; and v) better coupling efficiency is observed at lower frequency. Possible applications for railroad communication are discussed.
