Thin-wire Yagi antenna radiation patterns using the finite-difference time-domain method
Abstract
The radiation patterns of thin-wire Yagi antennas are computed using the finite-difference time-domain method. The radiated time-domain fields are transformed to the frequency domain and then compared to the frequency-domain results obtained from the method of moments.
