Abstract :
This paper describes the application of cylindrical Transmission Line Matrix (TLM) method to the modelling of curvilinear axisymmetric radiating structures. Cylindrical shaped monopole antennas are the main focus of this paper. The radiation pattern for the simulated monopole antennas were obtained in the cylindrical coordinate for the upper hemisphere of the ground plane.
