Abstract :
The thin-wire time-domain electric field integral equation is formulated starting from the extended boundary condition theorem and including a first-order approximation for the charges at the end caps of the wire. The equation obtained is solved directly in the time domain by the moment method. The effects of this approximation and of changing the situation of the matching points on the segments of the wire are studied
