Abstract
This book contains a useful compilation -of material on dielectric and metallic cylindrical antennas with emphasis on the dielectric antenna. These antennas are analyzed in terms of waves traveling on cylindrical surfaces. In Chapter I the various waves on a two-dimensional planar antenna are described as an introduction to the subject. The familiar metallic, linear antenna is t r e a t e d i n Chapter I1 and the dielectric cylinder or polyrod antenna, in Chapter III. Chapter I V contains a discussion of plasma column antenna as an extension of the dielectrode antenna. Both the dielec- .tric rod and plasma column antennas are assumed to be lossless. The subjects are discussed from the engineering or design viewpoint where emphasisThis book contains a useful compilation -of material on dielectric and metallic cylindrical antennas with emphasis on the dielectric antenna.
