ADMITTANCE OF A THICK MONOPOLE DRIVEN FROM A COAXIAL LINE,

Abstract

The apparent input admittance of an infinitely long, thick monopole driven from a low-impedance coaxial line is found analytically. The so-called 'capacitive end-correction' of an antenna driven by an external delta-function generator is then expressed in a very simple form. The theoretical results thus found agree very well with the experimental measurements. (Author)
