Calculation Formula

Resonant Frequency (MHz) = c / (4 * L)

Where:
c = Speed of light (299,792,458 m/s)
L = Antenna length (meters)

Whip Antenna Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Whip Antenna Calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the length of the whip antenna in meters in the "Antenna Length" field.
  2. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the resonant frequency.
  3. The resonant frequency in MHz will be displayed in the "Resonant Frequency" field.
  4. Use the "Reset" button to clear all input fields and results.

Working Principle

The calculator uses the formula \( f = \frac{c}{4L} \) to calculate the resonant frequency of a whip antenna. This formula assumes the antenna is a quarter-wavelength monopole in free space. The speed of light is used as a constant in the calculation.

Limitations

This calculator provides a simplified approximation and may not be accurate for all real-world scenarios, such as antennas mounted on vehicles or in different environments.
