This distribution assumes that the current vanishes at the two end points i.e., . The plot of current distribution are shown in the figure 7.7 for different 'l'.
Fundamentals of Antennas and Radiating systems |
Half Wave Dipole Antenna: Let us consider linear antennas of finite length and having negligible diameter. For such antennas, when fed at the center, a reasonably good approximation of the current is given by, |
