Abstract :
Radiation efficiency of homogeneous antennas has been discussed in this paper. The radiated and dissipated powers are expressed in terms of the radiating and nonradiating currents. It has been found that the maximum radiation efficiency can be accomplished by the homogeneous spherical antenna which circumscribes arbitrary antenna shape.
