Development of a Numerical Procedure to Treat Wires Attached to Arbitrarily Shaped Conducting Bodies.

Abstract

A numerical analysis procedure was developed which modeled wire radiating structures, conducting surfaces, and the junctions between them. In addition, an experimental investigation was undertaken to determine the admittance of a monopole antenna attached to a conducting box-a configuration which models several actual radiating systems. Experimental measurements and numerically predicted data were compared with good correlation noted. Keywords include: Wire antennas; Finite ground planes; Arbitrarily shaped conductors; and Vehicular antennas.
