Abstract :
In this paper a hybrid technique combining finite-difference frequency-domain technique with method of moments is presented. The technique is designed for efficient analysis of arbitrary curved thin-wire antennas radiating in vicinity of dielectric scatterers. FDFD-MoM technique is successively employed for numerical analysis of dipole and helical antennas in dielectric cover.
