The eHminationof this sharp rise over rocky ground serves principally to remove anirregularity in the constants of the wave-antenna near the end, sothat the entire antenna may be considered more nearly a smooth line.This makes the antenna function more satisfactorily as a unit of anarray in connection with other antennas constructed nearby.. Fig. 9. 6. Wave-Antenna Arrays. Since 1899, when S. G. Brown ^^ proposedthe use of two vertical antennas, separated in space by an appreciableportion of a wave-length and excited at a half-period phase difference, as a means of directional transmission, the use of arrays of antennas 1^ R. M. Foster, Directive Diagrams of Antenna Arrays, Bell System Tech.Jour., 5, 292; April, 1926. Also see references listed in Fosters paper. TRANSATLANTIC RADIO TELEPHONY 335 for directional transmission and reception has become increasinglyimportant. Antenna arrays may be divided into two general classes:(1) arrays of antennas having dissimilar directional characteristics, and (2) arrays of antennas the directional characteristics of which areidentical. The array formed by the use of a loop and a verticalantenna to form the familiar cardioid is representative of the firstclass of antenna arrays. Foster^ has pointed out that the idealwave-antenna may be considered as an array of an infinite number ofloop
