The Radiation Patterns and Current Distributions of Two Arbitrary Size Coaxial Circular Loop Antennas.
Abstract
It was not until 1970 that the first complete and general mathematical solution for the mutual admittance of two arbitrary size coaxial circular loop antennas was published. The problem was formulated by Adler in terms of coupled integral equations for the current distributions on the loops. The equations were solved using the Fourier series representation of the current distributions. The study presented here is the next logical step beyond the work of Adler. Using his current equations the current distributions are calculated. Radiation patterns and the loop current distributions are plotted for two cases: (1) both loops driven and (2) one loop acting as a short circuited parasite. (Author)
