Abstract :
In solving problems of multiconductor antenna transmission lines excited by an incident plane wave electromagnetic field, it is necessary to separate the antenna mode from the transmission line modes. This is accomplished by suitably transforming the definite integrals that occur in the theory. The purpose of this correspondence is to explain in a meticulous manner how this is achieved.
