Abstract :
The Nystrom method can be applied to the integral equations of electromagnetics. An example of an integrated-circuit antenna on a rectangular GaAs substrate is presented. The present version of the software deals with objects having the form of polyhedra, which covers a class of integrated antennas including printed loops, dipoles and so forth, dielectric rod antennas, and tapered slot antennas. A program of experimental measurements on integrated circuit antennas, both using low-frequency scale models and at millimetre wave frequencies, is presently being undertaken
