Abstract :
A recent approach to physical bounds on antennas of arbitrary shape is numerically illustrated. In particular, physical bounds for antennas circumscribed by the rectangular parallelepiped, finite cylinders, and planar rectangles are presented. The bounds are verified against numerical results for various small antennas with excellent agreement.
