  • Abstract
    An approach to the analysis of microstrip antennas on cylindrical bodies is presented. The printed radiator is replaced by as assumed surface current distribution, and the fields are solved taking into account the presence of the dielectric layer and the metallic cylinder. Calculation takes place in the Fourier domain. The far field, calculated asymptotically from this solution, is used to get the radiation patterns of the wraparound antenna for any dielectric and the half-wavelength patch for \\epsilon_{r} = 1 .
