Abstract

Wire and loop antennas are widely used in communication systems from low to ultra-high frequencies, either in the form of individual elements or arranged with other similar elements to form phased arrays. They are also frequently used as probes to sense unknown environments or as bases for modeling more complex systems and structures. In this chapter we shall be concerned with the important properties of wire and loop antennas as isolated elements. Our emphasis will be to develop simple expressions with sufficient accuracy for some basic antenna forms so that readers can generalize them to more complicated, composite structures pertaining to their particular needs without excessive reformulation and computing. For this reason our approach will be substantially different from those computationally more demanding methods reported in the literature. It is important for readers to recognize the physical description of our solution process in the later sessions in order to fully benefit from this approach.
