  • LOW-PROFILE MEDIUM WAVE TRANSMITTING SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20250350025
    Abstract: Techniques for controlling a low-profile medium wave transmitting system are provided. An example of an antenna system according to the disclosure includes a first radiator operably coupled to a first amplifier, a first modulator operably coupled to the first amplifier and configured to provide a first radio frequency signal to the first amplifier, a second radiator operably coupled to a second amplifier, a second modulator operably coupled to the second amplifier and configured to provide a second radio frequency signal to the second amplifier, a control module operably coupled to the first modulator, first amplifier, the second modulator, and the second amplifier, the control module being configured to control a delta phase value based on the first radio frequency signal and the second radio frequency signal, and control the power output of the first amplifier and the second amplifier.
