Title :
Characteristics of Propagating Waves on Yagi-Uda Structure
Abstract :
Analytic solutions of the current distribution, the k-/spl beta/ diagram, and the cutoff frequencies are obtained for electromagnetic waves propagating on an infinite Yagi-Uda structure. All quantities are expressed in terms of tabulated functions without involving numerical integrations. Theoretical limits of various passbands are also calculated.
