Charge and Current Density Distributions on Moderately Thick Transmitting Crossed-Monopole Antennas.

Abstract

Charge and current density distributions in the vicinity of the cross junction of several configurations of electrically long, moderately thick, crossed-monopole antennas with an intersecting angle of 45 degrees were measured. The recorded data was compared with a monopole antenna with the same dimensions as the vertical segment of the crossed monopole. Junction conditions such that there would be a maximum current/minimum charge and minimum current/maximum charge on the vertical monopole were investigated.
