Presented in this paper are two hybrid methods for combining the method of moments (MM) with other techniques. Both these hybrid techniques treat the problem of thin linear antennas near an elliptic cylinder. The principle aim of this work was to compine the MM treatment of wire antennas with the GTD. The results are then verified using the hybrid moment method-eigenfunction solution (EIG-MM).—Results are shown for the radiation pattern and the input impedance of arrays of dipoles near an elliptic cylinder, as well as for a single dipole. For arrays, results for the mutual impedance are also shown.

Übersicht

In dieser Arbeit werden, zum Vergleich der Momenten-Methode (MM) mit anderen Techniken, zwei Hybrid-Methoden präsentiert. Beide Hybrid-Techniken befassen sich mit dem Problem einer linearen Antenne in der Nähe eines elliptischen Zylinders.—Der Hauptpunkt dieser Veröffentlichung besteht darin, die Momenten-Methode zur Studie von Draht-Antennen mit der GTD-Methode zu kombinieren. Die Ergebnisse werden durch eine Eigenfunktionen-Lösung der Hybrid-Momenten Methode (EIG-MM) bestätigt.—Ergebnisse für das Strahlungsmuster und die Eingangsimpedanz, wie sie sowohl durch eine Anordnung von Dipolen in der Nähe eines elliptischen Zylinders, als auch durch einen einzelnen Dipol entstehen, werden präsentiert. Weiter werden Ergebnisse für die gegenseitige Impedanz angegeben.
