Insulated linear antenna
Abstract
The theoretical model of an insulated antenna in a general ambient medium is briefly reviewed. The solution of the integral equation for the current distribution in the antenna is then examined. The properties of the kernel are discussed in detail, and approximate solutions for the complex wave number are obtained. A comparison of the theoretical results with measured data and numerical computations is made to check the applicable range of the theory.
