Abstract :
It is the object of this investigation to measure the driving-point admittance, the amplitude distribution of the current, and the phase distribution of the current, relative to the phase at the driving-point for a dipole antenna immersed in a homogeneous conducting medium. Measurements of the driving-point admittance have been made for a range of values of the ratio \\sigma /\\omega \\epsilon_{r}\\epsilon_{0} of the medium taking the electrical height of the antenna \\beta h as a parameter. The ratio \\sigma /\\omega \\epsilon_{r}\\epsilon_{0} is varied from \\sigma /\\omega \\epsilon_{r}\\epsilon_{0}=0.036 to \\sigma /\\omega \\epsilon_{r} \\epsilon_{0}=8.8 and the antenna height \\beta h is varied from \\beta h=0.1 to 2\\pi at intervals of 0.1. The amplitude and phase distributions of the current have been measured for \\beta h = \\pi/2, 3\\pi/4, \\pi , and 5/4\\pi in a homogeneous conducting medium whose conductivity is varied from \\sigma /\\omega \\epsilon_{r} \\epsilon_{0}=0.036 to \\sigma /\\omega \\epsilon_{r}\\epsilon_{0}=8.8 .
