Abstract
A new approach is proposed, based on numerical (FDTD) and analytical (multiconductor transmission line MTL) tools, for the modelling of HF loop antennas mounted on aircraft. This method can be used to calculate the significant mutual coupling and the interaction with the body of the aircraft and also to perform fast optimisation of antenna size and position.
