Abstract
The decay of current with increasing distance from the feedpoint of a straight wire antenna comprised of a perfect electric conductor has been attributed to radiation by numerous authors, e.g. [1-5]. This connection is explained here using a time-domain solution for an impulsively excited wire and relating this to the E-field kink model of radiation.
