A novel very low frequency (VLF) communication system using one pair of magnetoelectric (ME) antennas has been proposed. The ME antennas are strain-mediated acoustic resonators operating at their electromechanical resonance in the VLF band. The measured near-field radiation pattern reveals ME antennas are equivalent to dipole antennas. The magnetic field radiated by the ME transmitter has been predicted along with distance ranging from 1 mm to 100 km. The measured magnetic field distribution coincided well with the prediction, and the maximum communication distance of 120 m has been achieved. With 80 V driving voltage, the power consumption of the ME transmitter has been measured as 400 mW. Furthermore, the direct antenna modulation (DAM) has also been successfully demonstrated on the ME antennas.
