Abstract
Suitable engineering expressions for the external impedance per unit length of a finite-length horizontal electric antenna located near the earth´s surface are derived by employing finitely conducting earth-image-theory techniques. The results should be applicable to horizontal wire antennas employed in the ELF band (1 to 3000 Hz).
