Airborne Antenna Pattern Code User's Manual.

Abstract

This report describes the use of a computer code to analyze antenna mounted on aircraft fuselage. Ram jet configurations can be handled as a special case by this code. The pattern can be taken in terms of an arbitrary conical cut. The organization of the code, definition of input and output data, multiple finite plate approach to simulate the structures on aircraft and various examples are presented. The analysis is based on the geometrical theory of diffraction, and various computed patterns are compared with experimental results. (Author)
