What is a Delta Loop Antenna?

A delta loop antenna is a type of radio antenna with a loop shaped like an equilateral triangle. It is known for its high efficiency and directional characteristics. The antenna operates on a resonant frequency, and its size is determined by the wavelength of the radio waves it is designed to receive or transmit. The delta loop antenna can be used in various applications, including amateur radio and broadcasting.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ L = \frac{300}{14 \sqrt{3}} \approx 12.37 \text{ meters} \]

The side length of the delta loop antenna is approximately 12.37 meters.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ L = \frac{300}{28 \sqrt{3}} \approx 6.19 \text{ meters} \]

The side length of the delta loop antenna is approximately 6.19 meters.
