A user's manual for Electromagnetic Surface Patch (ESP) code. Version 2: Polygonal plates and wires
Abstract
This report serves as a user's manual for the Electromagnetic Surface Patch (ESP) Code. This code is a method of moments solution for interconnections of thin wires and polygonal plates. The code can compute currents, input impedance, efficiency, mutual coupling, and far-zone radiation and scattering patterns. In addition to describing the code input and output, the use of the code is illustrated by simple examples. Subroutine descriptions are also given.
