Abstract :
Recently, S-parameter method that is the measuring method of the input impedance of the balanced antenna with a vector network analyzer is proposed. It is a problem of this method that the jig influences measured value when the measuring frequency in-creases. To remove the influence of the jig, we have examined compensating method using the ABCD-matrix. In this report, we examine the effect of the size of the jig on the input impedance using the FDTD method. It is shown that the influence by the size of the jig is small.
