Contents

This paper is aimed at providing a new method of the numerical solution of the Hallén's equation for the thin cylindrical antenna. Essentially, the method is a combination of the well known polynomial approximation for the current distribution along the antenna and a semi-polynomial approximation for the kernel in the Hallén's equation which leads to integrals in closed form suitable for the rapid and accurate numerical calculations.

Übersicht

Dieser Aufsatz setzt sich das Ziel, eine neue Methode zur numerischen Lösung der Hallén'schen Gleichung für die dünne zylindrische Antenne zu geben. Im Wesentlichen ist die Methode eine Kombination der wohl bekannten Polynom-Approximation für die Stromverteilung entlang der Antenne und einer teilweisen Polynom-Approximation für den Kern der Hallén'schen Gleichung, welche auf Integrale in geschlossener Form und damit rasch zur genauen zahlenmäßigen Lösung führt.
