Abstract
Transmission line theory has long been used to analyze the performance of dielectric-coated buried antennas. However, at UHF the ground cannot be assumed to be highly conducting and a new approach is necessary. A method is presented to predict the input impedance and pattern of a dielectric-coated traveling-wave antenna buried in lossless ground.
