  • Abstract
    In this paper, an alternative approach has been used to analyze an electrically small antenna (1.2m in the 2-30 MHz band) in a large ship (238m length) using a generic EFIE simulation code with Rao, Wilton and Glisson (RWG) basis functions, with the minimum necessary modifications to tackle the lowfrequency and multiscale issues that lead to a very poorly conditioned linear system.
