Modelling of a Periodic Quasi-3D Array using an Asymptotic Extraction Technique

An asymptotic extraction technique combined with the Method of Moments is used to model periodic quasi-3D arrays. These arrays consist of vertical and horizontal conductors. The particularities of the proposed approach are the use of special asymptotes that are used in the case of periodic arrays and single dipoles. This step facilitates at the same time the development of new features in the software code for a single dipole and a periodic array.
