The objective of this article is to design, build, test, and compare the performance of six antennas (Turnstile, qhf, double-cross, Moxon, V-dipole, and Eggbeater) used for receiving apt meteorological images transmitted from the noaa-19 satellite in an urban environment. The process follows a four-phase methodology: research, tuning system development, design and simulation, construction, and testing. During the research phase, fundamental concepts such as rtl-sdr, noaa satellites, and the apt format for image transmission are explored. Subsequently, the development of the tuning system involves the use of programs such as sdrsharp and WXtoImg to receive and decode the apt signal. The next phase encompasses the design, simulation, and construction of the antennas, with the selection of noaa satellites. Virtual tools are employed to calculate dimensions and parameters, followed by the assembly of the antenna designs. Tests are conducted in open spaces, aligning with the satellite orbits, to receive images. Finally, the results are evaluated in terms of image resolution and audio power to determine the most suitable antenna arrays for this type of communication. The Moxon antenna emerged as the best-performing, recovering images with resolutions of 1.94 megapixels, while the qhf antenna exhibited the highest power reception at 1.9 W. The V-dipole, qhf, and Eggbeater antennas demonstrated the best coupling with the transmission line, achieving low reflection coefficients of 0.16. In conclusion, it is established that in urban environments, the Moxon and qhf antennas effectively receive apt images.
