摘要

The dynamic-type seawater monopole antenna has the problem of direct connection between its radiation body and the seawater. This makes the radiation current flow into the seawater, which leads to low radiation efficiency. In this paper, a dynamic-type seawater monopole antenna of high efficiency is proposed using an inductive reactance isolated method. Based on this method, a dynamic seawater antenna of seawater inductance isolation structure is designed. According to its equivalent circuit diagram, the principle and design basis of isolation are analyzed. The FEKO software is then used to simulate the antenna’s radiation efficiency. In addition, the impacts of the radius of the seawater inductance, the number of turns of the seawater coil, the diameter of the seawater coil, and the average turn spacing on the efficiency of the antenna are studied. Moreover, the experimental verification shows that the radiation efficiency of the designed dynamic seawater antenna with inductive reactance isolation structure can be greater than 70%. The value of the received carrier power in the case of inductance isolation is higher by 10 dB compared with the case without isolation.
