Abstract :
A thin wire moment method code for the analysis of antennas embedded between a printed dielectric substrate and a superstrate radome is validated against a separate triangular patch code. This code-on-code validation approach has been adapted due to the shortage of published results for spiral antennas in multi-layered dielectric geometries.
