Abstract :
A new procedure is presented to a develop multi-variable model-based parameter estimation (MBPE) model to predict the far field intensity of an antenna. By performing the MBPE model development procedure on a single variable at a time, the presented method requires the solution of smaller size matrices. The utility of the method is demonstrated by determining the far field intensity due to a dipole antenna over a frequency range of 100-1000 MHz and elevation angle range of 0-90 degrees.
