Wing-Mounted Antenna Code - User's Manual.

Abstract

This report provides the necessary information to run a Fortran IV computer code which is used to analyze antenna patterns. The antenna can be in the presence of various structures which can be simulated by finite flat plates, an infinite ground plane, and a finite elliptic cylinder. For example, the radiation pattern of an antenna mounted on the wing of an aircraft can be analyzed. The computer code is theoretically based on the Geometrical Theory of Diffraction approach. Various examples are presented to illustrate the versatility of the code as well as its subtleties. (Author)
