Abstract :
A finite cylindrical dipole antenna of arbitrary orientation in a gyrotropic medium is formulated as an integral equation. A second-order approximation of the Green´s dyad combined with a novel summation technique is used in the numerical procedure of solving the integral equation. The numerical results agree well with those of Balmain at low frequencies. The range of validity of the method is given.
