Abstract
A novel analytical solution for a class of power-radiation integrals, arising in antenna theory, is presented. These integrals are then applied to the analysis of circular-loop and circular-microstrip antennas, and the results are compared to published results obtained using numerical integration. The analytical solution is shown to be sufficiently accurate and efficient for the calculation of the radiation characteristics of these types of antennas. Possible applications to other types of antennas are discussed.
