Abstract

See full text

A dipole antenna comprises a hollow dielectric whip, a coaxial center feed extending therethrough, and a pair of conductive dipole elements comprising an upper element and a lower element. The dipole antenna further comprises an upper element lead connecting the upper element to a first portion of the coaxial center feed at a feed point and a lower element lead connecting the lower element to a second portion of the coaxial center feed at the feed point. The dipole antenna further comprises a feed point strengthening means to mechanically strengthen the feed point against disconnection when the whip is impacted. Additionally, the dipole antenna may be a dual dipole antenna.
