Explicit modelling of antennas with sparse-ground screens
Abstract
A numerical technique based on interpolation has been used to examine the characteristics of a vertical monopole connected to 1-3 ground-screen wires elevated a hundredth of a wavelength above the ground. The calculations demonstrate the feasibility of the numerical modeling technique as applied to wire antennas and near-earth ground systems.
