Abstract

In this paper, the radiation characteristics of an asymmetrical slot antenna on a conducting prolate spheroid are considered. The radiated fields are expanded in terms of prolate-spheroidal vector wave functions. The unknown expansion coefficients are determined by a system of equations derived from the boundary conditions. Numerical results for radiation patterns and conductance are obtained and compare well with published data for a slotted sphere. The effect of the slot length and the shape of the spheroid on the magnitude of the radiated field and radiation conductance is also presented.
