Abstract: | A printed wire antenna of arbitrary configuration is analyzed. The electric field tangential to the wire is derived using the current expanded by piecewise sinusoidal functions. These functions are also used to form the impedance matrix elements. Use of the stationary phase method leads to a simple expression for the radiation field. Numerical analyses based on the present formulation yield radiation characteristics of a zigzag dipole antenna, a loop antenna, and a round spiral antenna |
