  • Abstract
    Wire loops printed on grounded dielectric substrates are analysed using a computationally efficient and accurate moment method. The factors expediting analysis are that the impedance coupling integrals have their dimensionalities analytically reduced through a co-ordinate transformation, and that curved subdomain basis and test functions are used. Results for input impedances and efficiencies compare well with those presented in the literature
