Abstract :
The problem of a horizontal wire antenna in the presence of a lossy ground is formulated analytically in terms of electric-field-type (Pocklington-type) integral equation for current distribution on the antenna. This equation is solved numerically by the piecewise sinusoidal Galerkin method. Numerical examples are given. The analysis is restricted to low frequencies.
