Abstract :
Exact vector potential integrals are written in spherical coordinates for the CWTHA. From these the far fields are expressed, both for the CWTHA (dipole field) and for a single winding (loop field). The vector potentials are numerically integrated; the results give the dipole field for a given current and ratio of dipole field to loop field
