The arrangement of a Mast-mounted folded dipole antenna away with corn
er reflectors is considered. The method of moments (MoM) in a wire gri
d model is used and a suitable optimization procedure is applied. Due
to the constraints for high power gain and low SLL the array is design
ed as a simple broadside Chebyshev one. The presence of 120 degrees co
rner reflectors change the pattern and makes the array to be a Hybrid-
Chebyshev one with approximately the same SLL. The distance of the arr
ay from the corner of the reflector is critical for the HPBW. Two diff
erent types of antennas with 60 degrees and 120 degrees HPBW in the ho
rizontal plane for possible mobile applications are studied. The whole
design work is given in a general form, useful for VHF and UHF commun
ication applications. To ensure the accuracy, two different wire grids
for each model are used. In the examples several interesting cases wi
ll be analytically presented.
