Computer program for thin wire antennas mounted on a satellite body modeled by flat plates
Abstract
A computer program is presented which employs the moment method representation of wire antennas in combination with the Uniform Theory of Diffraction to model antennas on a satellite body. The development of the program is not completely done in that multiple diffractions are not yet included. In some analysis situations this will be of no concern while in others it may be a limitation on the use of the program.
