Abstract
The helix antenna, invented in the late fourties by John Kraus (W8JK), can be considered as the genious ultimate simplicity as far as antenna design is concerned. Especially for frequencies in the range 2 - 5 GHz this design is very easy, practical, and, non critical. This contribution describes how to produce a helix antenna for frequencies around 2.4 GHz which can be used for e.g. high speed packet radio (S5-PSK, 1.288 Mbit/s), 2.4 GHz wavelans, and, amateur satellite (AO40). Developments in wavelan equipment result in easy possibilities for high speed wireless internet access using the 802.11b (aka WiFi) standard.
Theory in a birds eye view
The helix antenna can be considered as a spring with N turns with a reflector. The circumference (C) of a turn is approximately one wavelength (l), and, the distance (d) between the turns is approx. 0.25C. The size of the reflector (R) is equal to C or l, and can be a circle or a square. The design yields circular polarization (CP), which can be either 'right hand' or 'left hand' (RHCP or LHCP respectively), depending upon how the helix is wound. To have maximum transfer of energy, both ends of the link must use the same polarization, unless you use a (passive) reflector in the radio path.
The gain (G) of the antenna, relative to an isotrope (dBi), can be estimated by:
G = 11.8 + 10 * log {(C/l)^2 * N * d} dBi (1)
