Analysis of antennas and scatterers with nonlinear loads
Abstract
A description is presented of two methods for analyzing antennas with nonlinear resistive loads. The first method is a direct time-domain approach which involves the solution of a space-time domain integral equation. The case of a linear wire antenna having a nonlinear load is investigated. In the second method reported the response of the antenna is obtained with the aid of frequency domain data, such as the short-circuit current and the driving-point admittance.
