            Abstract : 
A moment method solution to the problem of radiation or scattering from geometries consisting of open or closed surfaces, wires, and wire/surface junctions is presented. The method is based on the sinusoidal reaction formulation. Several examples of input impedance calculations illustrate the versatility, accuracy, and computational efficiency of the method.
