ANT-W63WS4-ccc

Edge of Ground Plane, Bent 90 Degrees

The charts on the following pages represent data taken with the antenna oriented at the edge of the ground

plane, bent 90 degrees (Edge-Bent), as shown in Figure 10.

VSWR

Figure 11 provides the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) across the antenna bandwidth. VSWR describes

the power reflected from the antenna back to the radio. A lower VSWR value indicates better antenna

performance at a given frequency. Reflected power is also shown on the right-side vertical axis as a gauge of

the percentage of transmitter power reflected back from the antenna.
