Impedance comparisons for the asymmetrically driven thin cylindrical antenna

The results from various approximate methods of solution to three basic equations for the impedance of the asymmetrically driven perfectly conducting thin cylindrical antenna are briefly discussed and compared. Generally good agreement is found between method-of-moment solutions and the three-term King-Wu theory. Largest disagreement with those approximate methods is found with the Shen-Wu-King solution and the joining procedure.
