Abstract
The Uniform Geometrical Theory of Diffraction (UTD) has been successfully used in pattern analysis of airborne dipole antenna on the A-5 fighter in high-frequency region. In the analysis, several canonical problems are investigated first, then the complicated problem is calculated with compiling these canonical problems. The numerical results are compared with the experimental data, and good agreement has been seen. The effectiveness and practicality of the present analysis are thus verified.
