Digital computation of the mutual independance between thin dipoles

Abstract

This paper presents a method for computing the mutual impedance between any two linear center-fed antennas having sinusoidal current distributions. This method, which is very conducive to digital computer application, is not limited in terms of the lengths or of the relative geometrical configuration of the antennas involved. The method has been used to compute data which have been checked with both published and experimental data for various parallel, echelon, and skew cases. The results of many of these calculations are given.
