Abstract :
In this paper we develop a method of moment (MOM) formulation in order to find the current distribution and also total radiated electric fields due to a half-wavelength dipole antenna, oriented parallel to a lossy cylinder. We insert the Green´s function of the lossy cylinder in the MOM code to consider its effects in the calculation of total current and fields.
