Electrically, it simulates a series of two or three-element Yagi antennas connected together, each set tuned to a different frequency.
Wireless power transmission main Both Nikola Tesla and Hidetsugu Yagi attempted to devise systems for large scale wireless power transmission in the late 1800s and early 1900s, with no commercial success.
However, it should also be noted that a Yagi with the same number of elements as a log-periodic would have far higher gain, as all of those elements are improving the gain of a single driven element.
However, the system is somewhat more complex than that, and all the elements contribute to some degree, so the gain for any given frequency is higher than a Yagi of the same dimensions as any one section of the log-periodic.
In its common use as a television antenna, it was common to combine a log-periodic design for VHF with a Yagi for UHF, with both halves being roughly equal in size.
Note the early radar with transverse-dipole Yagi antenna fitted to the nose B-25J ;NA-40 :Twin-engined five-seat bomber to meet 1938 USAAF requirement for attack bomber.
