In 1888, Heinrich hertz discovered antenna, II. BACKGROUND
antennas were used to receive electromagnetic radio
waves from a radio tower hundred or even thousands
of miles away, it is also an arrangement of aerial A. Analog Television Antennas

We build a television antenna and aiming to RPN 9 186-192
acquire at least 80% of local television channels in the QTV 11 198-204
Philippines using two different types of antennas, VHF IBC 13 210-216
and UHF. Very High Frequency band is used for the SBN 21 512-518
lower channels and Ultra High Frequency Band for the STUDIO 23 524-530
higher channels. The two types of antenna we used to NET 25 536-542
combine are the Biconical and Log-Periodic antenna.
UHF CITYNET 27 548-554
Biconical antennas (also known as Bowtie or RJTV 29 560-566
Butterfly antennas) are broadband dipole antennas MTV 41 632-638
that are made up of two roughly conical conductive 3ABN 45 656-662
objects, nearly touching at their points. These
antennas have dipole like characteristics, with a wider
bandwidth achieved due to the double cone elements
structure. [2]

Log-Periodic is a multi-element, directional

antenna designed to operate over a wide band of
frequencies, it looks like a Yagi antenna, in that they
both consist of dipole rod elements mounted in a line
along a support boom, but they work in very different
ways. Adding elements to a Yagi increases its [1] https://www.articlesxp.com/uses-of-antenna-
directionality, or gain, while adding elements to a a622.html
LPDA increases its frequency response, or bandwidth.
