    Ground plane

    A simple ground-plane antenna consists of a vertical radiator and a conductive counterpoise, often radials. In the quarter-wave model, the radiator is approximately a quarter wavelength long.

  2. Learning

    Include the return path

    A quarter-wave radiator needs a conducting reference plane.

    Quarter wave, radials and counterpoise

    An idealised quarter-wave monopole stands over a conducting reference plane.
