Abstract

The distribution of current along a center-driven cylindrical antenna is obtained when the material forming the antenna is resistive. The particular case is considered when the impedance per unit length of the antenna is a function of the distance from the end. A solution is obtained specifically when the current is represented by an outward traveling wave with no reflected wave. The admittance of the antenna and the far-field pattern is determined. Field patterns are evaluated for a wide range of lengths. These are characterized by a single major lobe with a very small minor lobe structure.
