The Far Field Pattern Analysis of Vertical and Horizontal Dipole Embedded in a Dielectric Slab

摘要

The radiation characteristics of dipole antenna embedded in a dielectric slab depend on dielectric material properties. In this paper, the far field radiation characteristics of vertical and horizontal dipole antennas embedded in a dielectric slab of different thickness with a ground plane is considered and patterns are derived applying reciprocity theorem. Numerical results are presented in a graphical form to show the effects of the dielectric material on antenna pattern
