Abstract :
The program is for analysing radiation from antenna arrays of arbitrarily oriented thin-wire antennas over the plane surface of an imperfectly conducting earth. The solution is that obtained from the E-field integral equation by the method of moments. The effects of the imperfectly conducting earth are accounted for exactly by using the Sommerfeld formulation.
