A Study of the EMP Interaction with Aircraft Over an Imperfect Ground Plane.

Abstract

The study of thin wire configurations, in particular the isolated single wire and crossed wires, above the ground plane has been conducted utilizing analytical techniques primarily. The formulation is based on transmission line theory and the singularity expansion method (SEM). Natural frequencies, natural current modes and coupling coefficients are determined. These results are compared with the results obtained by earlier investigators using conventional numerical techniques. (Author)
