摘要：In order to meet the requirements of partial discharge (PD) detection of electrical equipment in substation station area, the ultra-high frequency (UHF) antenna with broadband, high gain and horizontal plane (H-plane) omnidirectional is studied and designed as a PD sensor. By analyzing the characteristic impedance and structural characteristics of the biconic antenna, it is determined to be an UHF omnidirectional wideband antenna for detecting PD. The influence of structural parameters such as half-cone angle and vertebral body height on the antenna performance is simulated. At last, a double cone antenna is made and its bandwidth, directional pattern, gain and equivalent height are tested.
