Abstract :
Recently we reported a numerical technique that uses interpolation to provide the Sommerfeld-integral values needed for a moment-method model of objects located near an interface. Here we use that technique to evaluate the characteristics of a vertical monopole connected to one to three ground-screen wires elevated 0.01¿ above a lossy ground.
