The Circumferential Variation of the Axial Component of the Current in Closely Spaced Thin-Wire Antennas.

Abstract

Closely spaced thin-wire antennas are analyzed by the moment method using the piecewise-sinusoidal function to describe the current variation along the length of the wire and a Fourier series for the circumferential variation. Data are presented for the circumferential variation of the surface current density of parallel dipoles obtained by the 'thin-wire' theory, wire-grid model, and the present formulation. (Author)
