Wire Antennas in Proximity of Conducting Cylinders and Wedges
نویسندگان
چکیده
Behavior of antennas in the vicinity of conducting bodies such as circular cylinders and wedges has received considerable attention in the past [1]-[5]. These canonical structures can be used to model a wide range of scatterers or mounting platforms for antennas in practice. Usually the supporting structure is of finite extent for which the exact solution does not exist, however, the analytic solution that is found for infinite cylinders or wedges is still very useful in predicting the radiation characteristics of practical antennas mounted on large conducting bodies.

A Hybrid Technique for Combining the Moment Method Treatment of Wire Antennas with the GTD for Curved Surfaces
This hybrid technique is a method for solving electromagnetic problems in which an antenna is located near a conducting body. The technique accomplishes this by casting the antenna structure in a moment method (MM) format, then modifying that format to account for the effects of the conducting body via the geometrical theory of diffraction (GTD). The technique extends the moment method to handl...
متن کاملCoupling Effects and Performance of Loran Transmitter Antennas
It is known that if a conductor resides in the neighboring of an antenna with a small distance relative to the wavelength, it induces a reverse current on the conductor. This paper involves the unavoidable coupling effects on some common types of LF antennas, due to the large wavelength in this frequency band. In particular, after some discussions about top-loaded antennas, the coupling effect ...
متن کاملA New Aspect on Wedge Diffraction: Hidden Rays on the Shadow Boundary
The phenomenon of diffraction may be defined by any deviation of geometrical rays from rectilinear paths which cannot be interpreted as reflection and refraction. Although the ascending series solutions to some canonical structures as cylinders, spheres, conducting wedges, etc. are available, they are not directly useful in high frequency region. Those ascending series solutions suffer from ver...
متن کاملModeling of cylindrical objects by circular dielectric and conducting cylinders - Antennas and Propagation, IEEE Transactions on
The scattering of an incident plane wave from an array of parallel circular dielectric and/or conducting cylinders is derived rigorously using a boundary value approach. Both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarized incident plane waves are considered. The validity and accuracy of the method are verified by comparing the numerical results with those based on other availab...
متن کاملTime-domain Analysis of Conducting Wire Antennas and Scatterers
In this work, a new method is presented for analyzing the transient electromagnetic response from conducting wire structures using the time-domain integral equation (TDIE). Instead of the conventional marching-on in time (MOT) technique, this solution method is based on Galerkin’s method, which involves separate spatial and temporal testing procedures. Piecewise triangle basis functions have be...
