Pattern prediction of wire antennas on satellite structures
Abstract
A technique which combines the Method of Moments and the Geometrical Theory of Diffraction into a single Hybrid Technique is incorporated into a computer program for determining the performance of wire-type antennas on a planar satellite panel which is joined to other planar panels on each of its sides. The computer program, which is still undergoing revisions, is capable of handling up to five antennas on a single satellite metallic panel.
