Abstract :
Mathematical expressions for the radiation resistance, gain etc. of the centre fed non-planar dipole antenna immersed in plasma medium are developed and results computed, using numerical analysis, for the radiation resistance, gain and effective aperture of the antenna with its feed points displaced (a) axially (b) transversely and (c) arbitrarily and arc reported in this paper.
