Abstract :
Previous investigation of the use of the singularity expansion method (SEM) for analyzing antennas or scatterers has concentrated on the behavior of currents and charges on a conducting body. In this paper the previous work is extended by defining the far-field natural modes for the linear antenna. The transient radiation pattern is then computed for a step-excited center-fed linear antenna.
