Accuracy Tests for Asymptotic Solutions to Radiation from a Cylinder.

摘要

The problem of determining the induced surface currents on an infinite circular cylinder excited by a slot radiator has received increased attention in recent years. One reason for this interest is the usefulness of the induced currents in calculating various electrical parameters. In a conformal slot array, for instance, knowledge of the currents allows calculation of both the mutual impedance between two slots and the far-field pattern. The work reported here is concerned with tests which attempt to evaluate the accuracy of existing solutions for the infinite cylinder problem. (Author)
