Abstract :
Simple engineering expressions for the external impedance per unit length of a long buried horizontal electric antenna are derived by employing finitely conducting earth image-theory techniques. The results should be applicable to horizontal wire antennas employed in the extremely low frequency (ELF) and very low frequency (VLF) bands.
