Principles of Directional Antennas

Paul Zander, AA6PZ.

Radio Amateurs know that the antenna is the most important part of a station. Directionality is an important attribute of an antenna. Antenna directionality or directivity can be used to give gain in a desired direction while reducing the strength of an interfering signal in a different direction. In other situations, an omnidirectional antenna pattern is desired, as for example when operating on a net with stations in different places.

This presentation explains some common and simple directional antennas and arrays used for HF, VHF, and UHF. Their radiation patterns is explained in terms of simple principles of physics and geometry.

Paul's presentation is available online.

Bio:

Paul Zander, AA6PZ, was first licensed as WA8JCM in 1963, when he was too young to get a driver’s license. He quickly discovered that antennas had a unique advantage for home brewing: unlike receivers and transmitters, one didn’t need a well-stocked junque box to make antennas. All that was needed was wire and insulators.

Over the years, he has designed and built a number of antennas including a full-sized, four-element, 40-meter beam for Field Day whose design was refined and scaled down to a 2-meter version that appeared in Ham Radio magazine (May 1983).

Paul is currently involved in making a 24-GHz antenna range.

He has an MSEE from Purdue University and over 25 years at Hewlett Packard, designing microwave test equipment. Paul consults on scientific and medical devices and is Chairman of IEEE’s Silicon Valley chapter of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society.

Progress toward Clean Nuclear Power

Dr. Alex Cannara

In an update to his October 2014 presentation to FARS, Dr. Alex Cannara talks about recent progress in molten-salt reactors (MSRs) which generate heat and electrical power on an industrial scale without the fuel emissions, nuclear materials, and waste we now produce, and can do it for the whole world for thousands of years, using a cheap, plentiful source.

These power sources:

Can't explode because they're unpressurized and produce no flammable materials
Shut down naturally, without power or people, if something goes wrong
Are independent of water cooling, so can be built anywhere, using little land
Get their energy from cheap material abundant on Earth, Moon, and Mars
Can be made to consume nuclear wastes.
Produce valuable industrial/medical/scientific isotopes now becoming scarce
Have already been tested and shown to work
Can be built and operated more cheaply than coal, oil, or gas power

The technology is the Molten-Salt Reactor (MSR), and the specific variant is Liquid Fluoride-Thorium Reactor (LFTR), developed, designed and operated in the 1960s at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory ThoriumRemix. Come and learn what might be the best kept secret for powering your emergency station while combating global warming in the not so distant future.

Bio:

Alex Cannara is in his second career. After a distinguished career in the Silicon Valley chip and software industry, he is now consultant on science policy and technical investment. He lectures widely on energy alternatives and climate-related policies. He has four graduate degrees from Stanford MSEE, Engineer (Plasma Physics and Systems), MS Statistics, and PhD (Mathematical Methods in Educational Research). He is an IEEE Life Member and member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Everything You Need to Know About Modern Digital Television

Joel Wilhite, KD6W

In the five years since Joel Wilhite, KD6W, spoke to FARS about Digital Amateur Television (DATV, Dec 2012) a lot has changed. This time Joel will talk about literally everything you ever wanted to know about modern digital television, including video standards and quality for over the air broadcasting, cable, Internet, DVD, Blu-ray, and YouTube.

How are movies shot at 24 frames/sec converted to video at 30 or 60 frames/sec? How is ATSC different from NTSC? Is Europe still using PAL and SECAM or did they go digital like the U.S.? Which among over-the-air broadcasting, DirecTV, Dish, and Comcast cable, offers the best picture quality for the least money? Why did 3D fizzle after all the hype two years ago? How about display technology: what display technology is on top today, 4K UHD OLED displays? What are the differences among video cables, HDMI, RCA, coaxial, optical — and what's best? Finally, are hams experimenting with sending and receiving DTV — where and how?

Bio:

Joel Wilhite, KD6W, works professionally in digital video industry. Joel is the Broadcast Solutions Manager at Harmonic Inc., a local company that makes equipment for digital video compression and transport.

Joel has presented papers at NAB and IEEE Broadcast Technology Society. Joel is also Technical Coordinator and a director of the Palo Alto Amateur Radio Association (PAARA).

Joel has been a force in getting Bay Area radio amateurs to migrate from ATV to DATV. One proud result for Bay Area hams is that Mt. Diablo (W6CX) is the first DATV station in the nation to run 3 channels (4-MHz QPSK) using an advanced state-of-the-art technique called Statistical Time-Division Multiplexing (Stat-Mux). Now that’s a mouthful!

Build a 1500 Watt Solid State Amplifier, the Easy Way

John Eisenberg, K6YP

Why consider building a solid state amplifier? Solid state amplifiers are broadband and require no tuning. I hate the 180 second warm up time associated with “modern” ceramic tubes. The pileup can grow from 1 or 2 guys to hundreds in 3 minutes. What a great learning experience for me as I have never worked with LDMOS.

Goals: 1500W power from 1.8-50 MHz, -50dBc harmonics, complete protection (temperature, VSWR, current, and overload), and easy to build.

Bio:

John has been a ham since 1957. His interests include DXing, and building equipment. His professional background is electrical engineering. His current interest is in high power amplifiers.

His presentation is on-line at: http://ncdxc.org/pages/presentations.html under K6YP.

Reflectionless Filters for Rejecting Harmonics and Interference

Steve Stearns, K6OIK

Who likes SWR? Not you? Most filters are examples of reflection filters that use mismatch as their filtering principle. Steve, K6OIK, explains a different kind of filter—the reflectionless filter. Such filters have constant input impedance and unity SWR at all frequencies.

Steve goes back in history to revisit early filters. We will learn about Campbell, Cauer, Foster, and Zobel. We will learn about electrical networks and reactance synthesis. Steve shows how to put the pieces together to make filters that pass and reject multiple frequencies, all while having unity input SWR.

As a practical example, Steve will show how to make a harmonic-rejection filter that notches a number of harmonics equal to infinity plus one. The filter is easy to build and align, has small insertion loss, good pass bandwidth, and unity input SWR.

3D Printed Antennas for Amateur Radio

Michelle Thompson, W5NYV

3D printed antennas are making a big impact in antenna design and test for amateur radio. A small but growing amateur community is reducing the time and effort to create and test advanced antenna designs. A set of tools and techniques exists to go from design to reality. Not all steps are easy or inexpensive, but with the rise of maker and hacker spaces that have 3D printers, the continuing drop in printer prices, and improvements in the software design tools, 3D printing antennas are rapidly becoming more accessible. We talk about 3D printing, 3D modeling, metallization techniques, and where the tricky spots are! What types of designs are best for 3D printing? When should you use traditional methods instead? Several 3D printing war stories included!

Michelle's presentation is available online.

Bio:

Michelle Thompson, W5NYV, enjoys thinking and doing. Not necessarily in that order! Book learning includes BSEET, BSCET, math minor, MSEE Information Theory.

Actual doing includes engineering at Qualcomm Incorporated, engineering at Optimized Tomfoolery, Amateur Extra class license, AMSAT Phase 4 Ground lead, Organ Donor Pipe Organ lead, DEFCON, IEEE, Burning Man, and community symphony.
